Default I'd rather have cruise controls on the steering wheel

Audio controls on the steering wheel will be nice but I would rather have the cruise control buttons on the steering wheel. Why not both like most other cars?

I wonder if they will have the Voice Recognition button on the Steering Wheel also? Probably not...
