I don't think they're ending the series quite yet (As far as I know they've been signed to do another season). Also, I read someplace (probably on this site) that there have been long-standing plans to kill Dr. Beckett off... For whatever reason.
The episode itself wasn't great and basically foretold Dr. Beckett's death halfway through. The end with Rodney was touching, and left it open for some sort of Ascention story line later in the series, but it just didn't feel like a real, gutwretching, major-character death episode. (Exploding tumours? Come on!). It was basically a means to an end to kill off a character to have the sad little moment with Carson and Rodney at the end of the episode.
The episode could have been done much better with the same end.
