Nokia said today it had ended production of its N810 Internet Tablet WiMAX Edition, the only mobile device using WiMax technology.

WiMax has been competing for the status of next generation mobile technology, but has largely lost the battle to Long-Term Evolution (LTE).

"We have ramped down the N810 WiMax Edition tablet. It has reached the end of its lifecycle," said a Nokia spokesman. Nokia unveiled the model only nine months ago, while usually even the most trendy models have a shelf life of well over a year.

Nokia did not rule out introducing further WiMax phones in the future.
