Depends on the size of the house, as WiFi is very slow and pretty shit if you live in a house with thick walls, which makes streaming movies/TV a PITA (last house I ended up with homeplugs everywhere)
Personally, I have gone for wired points in most rooms, and a two wifi repeaters. Mind you it is a big house with very thick stone walls. As in the end its only a few more wires scattered around.
Definitely allow for power in the garage and a cold water feed.
As for what are you going to use all these IT points for, well you can plug any computers/hifi/web radio/fire alarm/alarms/phones etc over them, and they just work.
I wouldn’t really worry about Cat6 becoming obsolete, as it supports 1Gbps and I doubt any home networks are going to need data much faster than that for quite a while.
To give you some perspective max speed for WiFi (g) is 54 Mbps and (n) is 100 Mbps, but these are theoretical, so you will be very very lucky to get more than 54 Mbps on n, and 32 Mbps on g when actually transferring data. So your wired network will be approximately 18 to 32 times faster than your WiFi network if you have a perfect signal in perfect conditions (ie: sat next to it)
