So I actually missed this article and did not know there was anything going on with the N810 Wimax Edition, until this afternoon. I was near the Nokia Flagship store in NY today and thought I would take a look at the wimax tablet even though I have the original n810. Of course, it was nowhere to be found so I asked one of the Nokia reps why there wasn't a display model. Apparently, the wimax edition is on hold for selling and not gone just yet. Nokia is taking precautions because the Sprint-Clearwire merger is going to put wimax in temporary limbo. The rumor inside Nokia is that the frequency for wimax may be changed whenever this merger is completed and so they do not want to sell this product to consumers until they know for sure. When I got home I checked anyway and of course it's still available for purchase on Nokia's website, go figure....

Not sure if any of this is true or if it was already discussed here or in a news article, but I just thought I'd pass it along in case.
