IOS 5 QUESTION!!? iPod iPhone iPad?

Ok it is about the wifisync: in blogs news and so on it says you can leave your idevice over night charging and let it sync with itunes the sametime. Now to my question: must i let my pc or laptop on so I can sync through wifi or how would it work actually? Because i dont want to leave my laptop overnight on. It will eat away a lot of electrcity >:((( please someone explain to me if he or she knows how it works.

Oh... I still have another question: how fast will the sync be. What if my internet is slow and it will take a long time to sync. Or do i only need a wifi router and it would be not so slow?

    ok yes your laptop will have to be on and itunes needs to be open on your latop for it to sync over wifi and yes the speed of your router kinda does show how fast the sync is like if i plugged it in and sync it normally and lets say i was syncing 20 new songs to my ipod it would only take like 30-45 seconds tops but over wifi its about a minute 30 to complete syncing it over wifi
