Since I wrote that I've been having another look at the pinout's for the 8M2 and am not sure that I can do both PWM and I2C, the one pin labelled with pwm is also the I2C SDA pin.
Should be able to do a version of PWM in code on another pin. Failing that look into the 14M2 chip's which do have PWM on pins seperate to I2C.

I use Picaxe i2c all the time, it's a snitch. Why the hang up with PMW?, why do you bother with it at all?, a very simple timer function or even just a padded for-next loop is all that's required for a dew heater . Any thing faster than a 1 sec period is a waste of effort and just creates noise. An 8m2 will easily do the job with i2c.
