Lately is is beginning to seem as if more and more people are worried about what the content on the iPad is going to cost, and in some cases is seems as if people are worrying about that more than actually plunking down $500 or more to buy the actual device. There has been a few instances that we saw book prices revealed, and even more talk of Wall Street Journal pricing. This latest bit deals with the later, comes courtesy of a WSJ article and suggests that it may cost more each month than some were hoping for.

Of course, this should not be considered official information, in fact it was noted as coming from “people familiar with the matter.” That said, the people who are familiar stated that;

“The Journal plans to charge subscribers $17.99 a month for iPad subscriptions.”

Simple and to the point, $17.99 a month. Now comes the time when we all wonder if people will be willing to pay that.
