Personally, I much prefer to have the functions on the steering wheel where you can see them.

My Ford and Honda were super intuitive with the cruise control function on the steering wheel. Going to the Passat, there was definitely a learning curve with the c.c. on a stalk. On the positive side, this was possibly the first car that really maintained a pretty steady speed on hilly terrain. My previous cars had a tendency to speed up on downhills with the C.C. activated or rev up way too much on uphills... pretty annoying as I had to disengage the cruise control more often, defeating its purpose. We'll see how the X1 behaves with its 8-speed gearbox and all that.
I recently saw a video on youtube on how the X1's cruise control works. Yeah, it seemed a little daunting as it integrates many speed control functions.
