Sieghard, Here's a question for you though. If the switch to speakerphone is only for voice over users, then did they put in the proximity sensor for only the blind to use? I don't know of another app that uses this, with the exception of the lift to talk with siri. But iPhone 4 has the proximity sensor as well, and it doesn't have siri. Hmmm..
