I suspect Wigig will be as popular as WiDi, another Intel wireless technology: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiDi Keep in mind how long it took Bluetooth to really take off and work reasonably well between devices (4.0 IMO): http://www.bluetooth.com/Pages/History-of-Bluetooth.aspx (Bluetooth is 15 years old).
I remember having a Nokia 6600 back in 2003, with a Sony Ericsson bluetooth headset, and getting a lot of questions about it. The phone had 3G and a video camera, web browser, smartphone OS (at the time; Symbian S60) with apps, and the Bluetooth headset I had (HBH-660) had called ID and a button to hang up, was very light, and lasted quite a while on a battery (IIRC, it would connect to Bluetooth on demand, since low-power 4.x wasn't a thing then). It's kind of disappointing to me how this stuff hasn't advanced terribly in functionality in the 10 years since. It's still wearables which work ~poorly, Bluetooth inter-op issues (cars are pretty notorious), battery life struggles, etc.
I've had a Lumia 928 for about 19 months now and I have to disagree. I haven't plugged the phone in - to anything - since I bought it. I find just thunking the phone down onto the Qi charger much more convenient than fiddling with cables. Some day we'll look back on wires in general and laugh at how primitive we were.
Wireless charging is a complex and inefficient gimmick for most devices, in my opinion.
