Did they change the trans fluid to "S"?

I went to the dealer today to buy a quart of trans fluid. On my dipstick it says use only "J", but at the dealer the parts guy said they updated all cars to "S".
Before I pour this in my trans, can anyone confirm this is true?

they told me the same thing and it was $14 / quart.
After searching the web, I think the S can be mixed safely with the J and it has improvements over it ( read from NICO forums)
I will probably buy online, I recall seeing it for $7.95 / quart somewhere.

I paid $12.44 + tax so you're getting ripped off
Thanks for the info

On the contrary my friend, you could have paid 8.95 here ->

I plan to do a ATF fluid change on my 08 Pathy S 4x4. If I read the specs right, it uses 8.5qts. can anyone verify this for me?
