Default Electric handbrake

I have just test driven an XC70 and found it disorientating to have the handbrake switch on the righthand side of the dashboard. I've not driven a Volvo before and all other cars I've driven have had the handbrake switch in the centre near the gear lever. Any views on this please, is it just something you get used to?
Also does the electronic handbrake have an auto hold function whereby it goes on automatically when you stop thus meaning it isn't necessary to keep putting it on using the dashboard switch. Thanks for any feedback to help my understanding.
