The latest edition of “MacNotables” (http://www.macnotables.com/wordpress/), a podcast that serves as home to Mac personalities who will comment on the latest news and opinions in the Mac community, is available.

Yours Truly talks about the impending combination of “Macsimum News” and “MacNews” before providing some insight into recent developments in the online video arena. Apple TVs are starting to arrive in customer’s hands, but several networks have expressed their disinterest in Apple’s new video rental model. Just to make things more
interesting, Hulu has announced they are coming to Roku and TiVo, but not Apple TV.

I and host Chuck Joiner talk about what it all means for the Apple TV’s success potential — and for your viewing habits. On the subject of competition for Apple, the Blackberry Playbook and Samsung Galaxy Tab have been announced. How do that stack up? Or do they?

“MacNotables” panelists include Christopher Breen, Bryan Chaffin, Jim Dalrymple, Adam Engst, Tonya Engst, Andy Ihnatko, Joiner, Ted Landau, Jason Snell, Bob LeVitus, Dan Frakes and Yours Truly. Not all panelists can make all shows due to scheduling conflicts.
