Double tapping a word to change brings up the Swype choices box, but a copy/paste choice box sits on top of that and doesn't allow picking any of the words to change.

Fix: The double tap threshold for Swype is more forgiving than the one for the built in cut and paste. Meaning if you double tap a bit more slowly than usual, you will invoke the Swype word selection widget without invoking the cut and paste widget on top of it.

Can't take credit for the fix, but it works on my TB.
