I couldn't immediately see the polling rate difference from wired vs wireless. I'm assuming wired can poll every .5S while wireless might be every 1S? What do other sprinters say about wireless? I'm assuming it's pretty crucial to get that extra .5S of data.
Wired/wireless doesn't factor into the polling rate. The head unit determines the polling rate. To my knowledge, only SRM head units (both wired and wireless versions) record as fast as every 0.5s. Garmin only as fast as 1s.

Wired is good for getting data faster. It takes longer for the wireless head units to "wake up" and start recording. So, standing start specialists (sprinters) prefer the wired for that reason. If all of your events don't hinge on the standing start, then wireless would be the easier option.
