I think they will help, though; I go through the entire process, explaining what is going on and what potential problems you might have. Wifi cannot be used at all to connect the two devices, for any purpose. The only exception is if your iPhone or 3g iPad has tethering enabled; in that case, the apex will see the iTouch as a router when you scan for wifi networks.
