Apple to Launch iPad Mag Subscription Model?

After months of talks with publishers, Apple is said to be close to announcing a magazine subscription model for the iPad.
 
Both sides have been haggling over the issue for months, and rumors of an announcement have been swirling the past several weeks. Still, one publishing exec said that now, “People are pretty confident.”
 
It’s not known which titles would launch the new model or the details of the model, which is believed to be a few weeks away from being announced.
