Heads up to anybody considering buying an HTC phone. (Although HTC is probably just the worst of the bad.)
Since the Portico update didn't fix the problem, I submitted the bug described at http://forums.windowscentral.com/htc-8x/207136-call-speaker-makes-phone-lose-its-mind.html via the HTC web site.
I received the following (probably automated) reply. Not only is the reply totally devoid of content or information, the link to e-mail support is broken and the link to send a reply brought up a page where it was impossible to actually submit a reply.
