Make it possible to chose other keyboard layouts. If you can select the layout you are used to use, it will be easier to type.
Some layouts are very similar so there is no big problem. But e.g. I'm using Neo2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K
Unfortunately, because of the way the Swype algorithms work, it kind of needs to be preset for specific keyboard types. The layout is actually tied very closely with the prediction algorithms. To that end, this beta only supports the "standard" QWERTY keyboard.
Future versions will support such things as QWERTZ and AZERTY to match different languages, but a case could be made for adding different keyboards like Dvorak or Neo2 to the list of keyboards supported. I'm sure Swype will consider this.
