The folks at Swype aren’t ready to bring their new take on the software keyboard out of beta, but they are about to update it to version 3.0. Members of the beta program can expect the new version to become available today and, along with it, quite a few updated features.

In the latest update, Swype gains tap correction support, providing predictive text for those occasions where you’d prefer to tap in a word letter by letter rather than using the namesake swiping method. Predicted words are now displayed in a horizontal word choice bar above the keyboard rather than as a popup selection. Swype 3.0 supports HVGA, WVGA, FWVGA,WQVGA, WSVGA, and qHD displays. A special WXGA version for Honeycomb features a moveable and resizable keyboard.

If you are part of the beta program check for the update now, it should be available momentarily.
