iHub to Bring Wireless Local Network Syncing to OS X and iOS

There’s two problems I ultimately have with iOS and the devices that support it. The first is push notifications, and the second is the stupid cable. Focusing on the cable, why hasn’t Apple implemented a wireless solution yet? While they dilly-dally with a much wanted feature, Macworld reports that Nova Media has announced their own solution for wireless syncing called iHub.

iHub is simply a background application that runs on your Mac and waits for iOS devices to appear on the local network. The caveat is, however, that you can only sync your address book and calendar – which is still great for business men and women who venture in and out of the office all day. While more convenient than the cable, those looking to transfer music will still have to connect to iTunes to do their bidding.
