Does iTunes need to be running on my PC in order for the wifi sync to work?
I know the computer needs to be on, but ot sure if I need to have iTunes
open.

Can WiFi be used to connect to iTunes and sync data. The manual seems to
imply hard (usb)connection only for syncing. Maybe I am wrong.

iTunes must be running.

If I manually initiate a Wi-Fi sync on the device while my computer is
on but iTunes is not running, the Settings app says 'Sync will resume
when "<computer_name>" is available.'

You also need the latest version of MacOS. Earlier versions do not support
wifi syncing even if iTunes and iOS is on the right version.

Which means I cannot wifi sync my "i" devices.

you do not need the latest mac os x. wifi sync works with 10.6.8 as
well as any version of 10.7 (currently 10.7.2).

Ok, you don't need the latest version, but you need at least 10.6.8.
