I love the heated steering wheel as well, and it is the singular reason why my next X5 won't be a M-sport.
I'm in exactly the same situation...and very disappointed in BMW on this point. I wanted the M-sport package on the 2011 X5 35i I am currently spec'ing and was prepared to pay the premium until I found out it deleted the heated steering wheel. Having lived with it on my current X5 I would not purchase another w/o it.

When I bought my current 2005 X5 4.4 with the sport package BMW had finally added the heat function to the sport wheel. I'm surprised this continues to be a hit and miss proposition.
