Howdy all,
does anyone have any idea how I can make a pie chart I've got in Illustrator into a spherical object? (i.e. a sphere divided into sections)
Been playing around with the 3d effects but to no avail :-/

not easily...
the easiest approach would probably be to move the center of the pie chart off-center and curve all the piechart lines. Then you could overlay a nice radial gradient and put it on multiply.
Or you could try and find a nice vector view of the world with longitute/latitude lines and try to approximate it with those, deleting all the landmasses.

a lame hack, i know- but if you have Apple's Pages app, you can build these super easy and save as PDF and then bring into illy.

^ I was going to say the same thing. Or, if you have Numbers (the new Apple spreadsheet program) you can do the same thing. But I doubt it since it came out yesterday.
