The first one. I always pronounce it to rhyme with Hi-Fi as was intended. I do know some brits that pronounce it wiffy, but I'm not sure that's universal over there.

Another vote for number 1. I've never heard it pronounced any other way.

I call it 'wireless'. It confuses oldies like my dad when I tell him I've been watching films on the wireless...
