I'd love to meet Woz, but alas, Canberra Australia is a looong way from California USA.

He really comes across as such a down to earth kind of guy especially considering he is equal part responsible for a company that just recently was the most valuable in the world for a moment or two.
 
That's very cool. Imagine going to the apple store to wait in line. You show up and the guy ahead of you is Steve Wozniak. Now he's going to be on the front page of everything tomorrow.. lol.
 
haha, Im in the line right now, Never noticed he was here until I read this!

Please do me a weird favour. Go walk up to him and say the following. "Hi I'm <insert name here> and I have a guy named Tristan from Australia that is trying to live vicariously through me and has asked if I could please convey the following message to you. 'Hi Steve, thanks for the Apple ][ it's what started my love affair with computers.' "

...or alternatively you could just tell me to get stuffed :D
 
Why are they illegal?

Whoops... hrm I remember reading something that since they are motorized that you can't have them on the sidewalks, but looking on google it seems they are "permitted" atm but that California hasn't made up their minds on allowing them or not.

Here's another article saying they are perfectly legal to use on the sidewalks (except for certain cities like SFran) http://www.ehow.com/about_7220017_segway-human-transporter-california-law.html
