If you get a 1.4 base aps weapon instead, you can get to 1.92 aps with just 40% ias (on gloves + ring / amu), so you can get lots of int/vit/allres equip. I'm at 56k dps using exactely that setup (and as soon as I can afford it, I'll get another +12-15 ias ring with int and allres on it to got over 2 aps again).
Swords and Wands have 1.4 aps base.

okey! i will try to find a 1.40 aps and reach 2.0 aps!

But my question is --> IAS is capped? I mean you must hit a certain amount of IAS then try to increase other stats OR there isn't a cap of IAS so as much IAS you can stack its all good????

Afaik there's no "cap", it's generally seen as "good" to reach around 2 aps as wizard to be able to kite better, other than that, nothing I'd know about.
Though, take this with a grain of salt - I might always be mistaken about that.

I see a lot of Wizards going VIT and INT now. No more glasscannon?

Unless you go for XpLiCiTs style of play, you will always be a glass cannon. More vit just helps to survive a little better, as your force armor breakpoints will be much higher. So usually you get Int/Vit/allres equip at the moment. Having 500-600 allres with 30-40k hp and still doing 40k+ dps is the aim currently, as that's about what makes soloing inferno possible (if you go for the mainstream stuff - other ways will work as well!)

No one seems to have an answer for my question about crit (pg 49)... Surely people have tried crit builds in 1.02+??? Is it feasible or not worth wasting the time? With experience in act2 inf, I was thinking a high res/prismatic armor build with crit + critical mass could allow for more flexibility to spam attacks and refresh powerful cooldowns such as Wave of Force or Deep freeze rune.. Any thoughts will be appreciated.

I think Meteor is pretty much required for Critical Mass builds now, the 'ticks' on the floor left behind after Meteor can crit and work with Critical Mass

Interesting - I understand that everyone LOVES the hydra/blizz spam build because its just incredibly fun but I'm trying to explore other possibilities, and the meteor idea sounds quite nice - is that something you've tried, and if so, how does it go? I feel like that one would go well with Mammoth Hydra and the fire passive.
