Woz is Out of the Loop at Apple, and He Likes it That Way

Adam Frucci — Wed, 16 May 2007 14:15:00 EDT

In the final installment of our interview with Apple co-founder/inventor of the personal computer Steve Wozniak, he lets us know some details of his "outsider" status at Apple and why he likes it that way. Does he have all the inside scoops before anyone else? Nope. Does he get the first prototypes of each new product? Nope. But that's just the way he wants it. Woz is a man of the people.

Check out the rest of our interview here, if you've missed any of it. Thanks again to Woz for taking the time to talk with us, and feel free to come back any time. We'll save a seat for you at Giz HQ. –Adam Frucci with video by Richard Blakeley

Woz's Unique Phone Plus His Love of 3G and GCal

Adam Frucci — Tue, 15 May 2007 13:05:00 EDT

Woz is back, this time to dish on phones. What does he like in phones? What makes a phone worth owning? What phone does he use on a day-to-day basis? Interestingly enough, he's a big fan of 3G phones that are fast enough to stream video. I guess you didn't get the memo, Woz: The iPhone is sorely lacking in the 3G department.

As for what phone he carries around, he sort of winked at the notion that he has an iPhone already, but he's smart enough to know what Jobs would do to him if he busted it out at a press event. So what did he have on him? We won't spoil it, but it's safe to say it's as rare and unique as the watches he wears. –Adam Frucci with video by Richard Blakeley

Woz Explains His Sporting of Two of the Geekiest Watches Ever Created

Adam Frucci — Mon, 14 May 2007 13:25:00 EDT

Why would Woz wear a watch on each wrist? And what kinds of watches would a man with his finger on the pulse of the tech industry sport? Not your standard Timex, that's for damned sure.

In another segment from my interview with Steve Wozniak last week, we see what kind of gear he keeps strapped to his person at all times. If there ever was someone suited to wear these insane watches, the Woz is it. Have we mentioned that we like Woz? Check back tomorrow for more. –Adam Frucci with video by Richard Blakeley

Woz Explains Apple Fanboyism

Adam Frucci — Fri, 11 May 2007 12:40:00 EDT

Here's another clip from my interview with Steve Wozniak yesterday. This time, he's talking about what about Apple makes people so fanatical. Sure, I could have asked Blam, but he looks so cute sleeping in his Apple pajamas that I couldn't bear to wake him up. Anyways, Woz is a greater authority on the subject as he receives the love of fanboys rather than just being one himself.

Check back next week for more videos, including more iPhone talk and a peek at the hardware Woz carries around on a daily basis. –Adam Frucci with video by Richard Blakeley

This morning I was fortunate enough to have a chance to sit down with Steve Wozniak, otherwise known as Woz, king of the geeks. The co-founder of Apple and the father of the personal computer is like Santa with a tech fetish, an incredibly nice guy with lots to say about the future of technology.

Click the picture above for our first clip, which includes Woz talking about where he thinks technology is headed, OLED screens, the iPhone and realistic humanoid robots. Need we say more? Over the next few days we'll be posting more clips from the interview. Stay tuned for more on what phone he carries around with him, why he wears a watch on each wrist, and more. –Adam Frucci with video by Richard Blakeley
