[Wifi iTunes Sync Question] - What is the state of affairs with this?

I'm basically trying to find out what the situation is with getting wireless iTunes syncing working. I know about iSync which later moved to wiSync, but that only allows syncing a folder, which AppStore apps can do now so I'm not sure where its development sits, but I'm more specifically looking for an iTunes library sync.

My Situation: I have an old 2G integrated into my car that I would like to update its iTunes library every night (via wifi) in case I have new songs. Obviously the big initial sync would be via USB but after that a couple of songs a night should be fine via wifi. Waking up the phone via an alarm should be easy enough to start the sh script (running off a daemon) to start the sync, but the mechanism of the sync is the problem!

I don't think you can use something like rsync because the files in iTunes_Control are not the whole thing, right? Plus were would the files be on the PC? I'm not familiar enough with iTunes to know if something like rsync can work so if anyone can help me out it would be REALLY appreciated.
