Either Apple of Swype arent ready for prime time.
Its either Swype or iOS handling of 3rd party keyboards, but regardless its not worth the hassle.
Cant log into hotspots, dialog boxes cant be edited... Its all very flakey.
I had to remove Swype from my list of keyboards just so I can do the things I need to do with my iphone.
Its probably Apple - I dont expect they are big fans of allowing 3rd party keyboards.
Complacent about
Swype, v1.6.1
