Whenever I use swype, the "select input" notification appears in my taskbar, does anyone else have this issue? Do do I disable it? It's a small gripe, but it's annoying me! Thanks!

Even if I re-select swype as the input, it still appears every single time I use swype.

Yeah, I think that's new functionality in ICS. You used to long-press in a text box and it came up with input options. It doesn't do that any more (it comes up with a couple other choices now). So to change input it always put the "select input" notification in your taskbar.

Mine's missing when in landscape but present in portrait.

I've noticed once or twice it wasn't there, but is now. I personally don't use it at all and usually turn it off in options (I just swype away and correct later). Don't know if it's a problem with the build or if it's working correctly. But something I can personally live with until a version for ICS is released by Swype.

Yeah, I mentioned that in my OP and again later. There's a workaround listed to use a different keyboard in Landscape mode. It's a sizing issue with the bigger screen.

Ah, bummer. Thanks for the info.

Also, there's an updated version with landscape mode working. Just go to google+ (you don't have to register) and search for "Swype Beta for Galaxy Nexus".

Oh yeah, I can definitely live with it as well, I'm just happy to have Swype back. Coming from a WinMo phone (Omnia II), it was the ONLY thing I missed having on a phone, and now I have it and can move on with life.. DancingNexus

Does anyone have a working version of this available for download? The one in the OP does not work anymore.

Not a problem. And if anyone else stumbles on this thread, just pm me and I'll be glad to send it along. I know I couldn't live without it any more.
