I have never heard of or experienced this change. Taking it away from my ear has been the way to put it in speaker mode, even after SIRI arrived. Apple care doesn't even know how speaker phone works? Sometimes I really truely just don't get it. Their in store people know nothing half the time, their apple care doesn't even know basic stuff and more often than not they really don't know how to resolve your problem or even as much as you did when you called. They release things full of bugs in major functionality all the time and everyone worships their every move. I really truely love and appreciate the accessibility they provide, but I really just don't get this other stuff.
