Swype Problems

---

My R2D2 Droid 2 came pre-installed with Swype 1.64.40.9380. I assume that's the same version that comes on all Droid 2 phones.

I've had my Droid 2 for about a month, and I've been a religious Swype fan since using it on my Omnia II. It worked great until about a week ago when a few other weird things went on with my phone.

Now, I can only use my Swype keyboard as a regular keyboard. If I drag my finger across, the keyboard just closes and does not enter anything. I've tried switching to the multi-touch keyboard and back, rebooting, etc.

Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall this version or an updated version of Swype? I am new to Android so I don’t know where to get an install package for a preinstalled app, nor do I know how to uninstall something that was preinstalled.

I'm coming from the Windows Mobile world, and I'm completely clueless. I appreciate any help I can get on this.
