Should we be expecting a mid-December release that brings a subscription model to the iPad?

Apple’s iOS 4.2 was released on November 23^rd. It has been only a week since the release and speculations of a release of iOS 4.3 for mid-December have been popping up on the Internet.

According to Gizmodo, who sited MacStories, Apple is considering a mid-December release for an update to their operating system that will include iPad magazine subscriptions.

December 13^th was supposedly going to be the exact day of the release. However, since iOS 4.2 fell behind schedule, the release date may be bumped up a bit.

A release on the 13^th would make sense, since Apple and News Corp are expected to announce on December 9^th that they will be releasing a subscription-based iPad newspaper for The Daily.

If these rumors turn out to be true, the iPad may finally be turning into the game-changing device that online publishers were looking for.
