what keeps delaying the implementation of these standard such as docsis 3.0 and the new wireless n standard? I know we could say dragging their feets but why?
Standards bodies are usually so wound up in politics that getting anything out the door is a minor miracle. These standards groups are a good example of democracy run amok.

I would agree that some standards body are very slow due to the political nature of things. However I think it's better to have a slow standards body that gets it mostly right the first time then one that rushes everything out the door as soon as it enters, bugs and/or issues included. While getting the latest technology stabilized and approved quickly can be advantageous, it can create a real headache for manufacturers and consumers when v1 and v1.1 and v1.2 aren't compatible with each other because there were major changes between them.
