Dude, your vision on the value of WiFi is extremely limited and your own WiFi network is in need of serious troubleshooting. We're seeing WiFi download speeds that are about 330% faster than 3G on our home network (even with a relatively slow Comcast Internet connection). I think WiFi is a must-have feature in a modern cell phone. In fact, WiFi makes a cell phone a more versatile device.
Besides a faster Internet connection, we've added Apple's wonderful Remote software application to our two iPhones, and can control our iTunes whole-house audio system with either. AppleTV control is coming, and I'd guess, universal remote capabilities for all the home A/V components. With WiFi, the iPhone also can be used to control appliances, our heat/AC, and new, wireless room lighting we added to three different rooms using SmartHome Insteon devices (which also are linked to our local ethernet/WiFi network). In fact, any WiFi-enabled phone can be used to control these functions, although the unique and rock solid iPhone/iPod touch are emerging as the industry standard for home automation.
