Get your Mii on your Mac

Created by Mike Cohen, this handy little application lets Mac users transfer their Mii from the Wiimote directly onto their Mac, allowing them to easily share them on community sites such as MiiPlaza.net and edit them using Mii Editor. Now, we haven't tried this yet, but apparently some of the comments over there speak of many problems when attempting to do this, but some have had it work.
Anyone out there want to give this a try and let us know?

Sounds pretty interesting. They should hurry up and get this for PC.

I've talked to Mike Cohen through his Wii. I told him my problem then he quickly repsonded back to me. To let me know it was only built for Intel based macs only. I told him i had a PowerPC G4 format, and told me he will make it universal for both Intel and PowerPC formats. Sometimes it pays to have a Mac computer for this solid reason.

so far it works for me... well sorta.
It only works with slot 1. so I can't put 8 mii's on my computer, only 1 at a time or else it crashes.
It only does mug shots, but not bad! I think I'll use it as my aim icon

Yay! Woot for Mac!

Billy, you'd probably be better off using WDML (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wdml/) as a starting point for Linux. Since this code is based on Cocoa & Objective, the closest you can come on Linux is GNUStep.
