Custom Swype for Android with Google Voice Input

Tired of Dragon Dictation on the new version of Swype Beta?  It never works for me at all in a noisy environment, and doesn't work very well otherwise.

Reactivate Google voice input by installing the old version of Swype (Dec 2011).  I removed all the excess languages from this version and resigned it, it is in English only and 7mb.  Works great on my HTC Incredible, it feels good to be back.  Does it work for your phone?

Download the custom Swype.apk here:

Don't forget to enable swype in "Language & Keyboard" under settings, then select Swype as your input method.  Make sure you have deselected and uninstalled your version of Swype before installing this.  Keyboard image and version number below:
