Engadget HD Podcast 312 - 08.21.2012

Right on time this week, we've got the return of Apple TV rumors (again), a look at the trend of cable cutting and a surprise of the good kind for digital copies. Second screen TV apps are also in full effect this week with updates from Syfy Network and GetGlue. One more big surprise is the arrival of Avatar on Blu-ray 3D at retail this fall, plus a peek at our back to school guide. Listen in and tell us if you agree with our picks, or just take out your frustration in our fantasy football leagues. If you'd like to join in on the fantasy action leave a comment on this post with your email address, or just joni our Pick 'Em league on Yahoo. The league ID is 19511 and the password is EHD12, the winner will receive our respect, admiration and scorn until next season.
