So does this mean we'll be able to get full support for Macs now from Sony? Or maybe some third party will provide a way?

You will be able to copy normally from minidisc, just like before,except now it will have slightly better quality.
If you want to put your mp3 to minidisc netmd, then I saw a program somewhere that allows you to do that.
And its optical, not spdif, you need an ac-powered converter to connect G5 PM to spdif taking sound systems.

How could I expand a 17" PowerBook with optical in/out (SPDIF) like the PM G5?

Having optical outs will mean nothing to Sony. NetMD uses USB anyway.
But it will mean a better quality recording, and hopefully iTunes sends the signal for track marking. If that's the case, using that in combination with XMD (for titling), you get a pretty good NetMD replacement. Real time recording being the trade off for better quality recording. (since via optical you can record in SP. NetMD doesn't support SP - it just records LP2 and disguises it as SP)

The sound recorded by NetMD is crap. Same LP4, the sound is much better if recorded by optical out than NetMD.
