No sync over wifi option in iTunes. Why?

I've seen this question asked many times, but no definitive answer yet. My OS is 10.5.8, latest iTunes (10.5), iOS 5 on both my iPhone and iPad. When either are connected to the Macbook and iTunes is opened, there is no option for syncing over wifi in the options list.

By contrast, my wife's iPhone and iPad sync to her Windows7 PC, and she has the option. I'm not sure why the OS would matter, since the syncing is between iTunes and the device, but why in the world would a Windows machine have the options while a 2-year old Mac doesn't have the capability?

Any ideas? Thanks.

planotech,

I'm having the exact same issue. What's even more strange is that my wife's MacBook pro, operating on same OS as mine (OS X 10.5.8) is working seamlessly. She has option in iTunes to sync wirelessly. My MacBook, running the same OS x does NOT have option to sync Using wifi. Extremely frustrating.
