Quite a few things can be done with the wonders of Bounjour. File transfers, and wireless streaming, all the things that you could ever want to do over a local network, can be done with Bonjour. One thing that would certainly be nice on the new iPhone would be the ability to sync your iTunes library without using that pesky USB cable.

This folder you see, contains icons that represent devices and services that are normally reserved for use with Bonjour. As you can clearly see in this screen shot, the folder contains icons that represent the iPhone and the iPod Touch. Now, this is not an absolute confirmation that they will be getting Bonjour support, but it is a fair bet.

Bonjour has already been brought to the iPhone unofficially thanks to the relative ease of jailbreaking and loading custom icons on the iPhone and iPod Touch. WWDC and the rumored launch of the 2.0 firmware is right around the corner, so keep it locked for the latest news.

What’s wrong with cables? They’re needed to charge the iPhone, so what’s wrong with doing the synch at the same time?

Good point, but more often than not I’d like to walk into the house and sync all the nrw content thats been downloading all day on my computer while I’m moving around. My computer is upstairs, so I would be phoneless if I put it in the cradle.
