swype 3.9 has given me a lot of headaches and I found myself watching the tutorial time and time again saying I did that and its not working - wth!?
Luckily I always go back to swype 2.0 and everything is almost perfect in that the predictive text entry is completely awesome

I have to agree with Noir on this one.
As much as they seem to have improved the look and the overall usability and speed, I feel that prediction has taken a major beating. The older Swype was, like Noir said, scary accurate! I find myself always retracing and having to redo my input a lot. The word menu comes up way to often now compared to before.
I'm really fast with Swype; so fast that if they had a contest, I could put 90% of the contestants away with ease, but with this new one I find the constant editing and rechecking to be a huge pain and it takes away all the fun out of using Swype.
For those of you that don't do light speeds with Swype, I would still recommend using the latest version of Swpe.
EDIT: BTW, Any skins for Swype v3.x
