They do that for emissions reasons....it is rather annoying when the temp outside is 15F and it takes 40+ seconds to get out of second. However, it will shift if you exceed 30mph, but then you have to rev to 3200rpm with a cold motor. So its a bad thing either way. I might try to disable it on my 300E.....looks like you can just unplug the solenoid/delay valve on the tranny and that will prevent it.
