I agree, in a straight line it works... your hands at 3 and 9 o'clock and you can up or down shift all you want. But once you start turning the wheel, the buttons go with, and that makes any shifting difficult when your wheel is moving. I'd even like them better if they were just attached to the steering column, and never moved from 3 and 9 o'clock... at least I'd always know where they were.
And personally, I normally drive with my left hand at 12, and my right hand free to change radio stations (or if this was a manual... to shift with). 3 and 9 o'clock are not comfortable positions... especially for anyone who is used to driving a manual.

Ahh, my fault..I assumed someone was going to be doing some autocross or likewise, where you rarely shift while in the middle of a corner. If we are just talking about casual driving, it's moot anyway.
