You don't have it any more. It was part of the MT3G 1.6 software, and when you rooted and rom'd....well, it got deleted and now you don't have it.
Your gonna be like me and LOVE CM6, but your gonna miss Swype.
You can goto their website and sign up for an email to let you know when they will open the beta download again so you can get it again.
Other that that, no Swype.

thanks for your help, i can live without swype. BUT, i am verrry happy CM6. and launcher pro..haha. but i have a question for you. have you noticed in any type of 3g change or reception? ever since i did my Root today, its been all over the place!
I had the same issue when I went to 2.1. You can find some swype downloads, but they didn't work for me. It gave me the infamous resolution error.
After about 30 minutes online I found a download for shapewriter, and I think it works just as well as swype. I'm not sure, but from my understanding it was purchased by nuance, and not "available" anymore. I could be wrong though.

That's right, after Nuance purchased Shapewriter, it was taken off the market
I actually prefer Shapewriter to Swype

The beta is closed i think so the only way to re-download it is if you were part of the beta. if you never downloaded it with the first beta you can go to the site and download again.
