That is the version I'm using (64gb version; not sure that makes any difference).

Are you trying from the Messenger/SMS app, while writing a text message to someone else?

However, I just tried the same while typing a note inside the Notes app. The behavior is the same: after typing "1024k |" (using the default, non-numeric keypad in Swype), it now shows "102k |4k" (again, "|" indicates last cursor position -- so I never actually see what I have put in the first quote above, because adding the space at the end automatically triggers the behavior).

For instance if you attempt to enter another word directly after entering 1024k a space will be added correctly, also if you swipe from either the comma or period to the space bar the cursor behaves as it should.

Interesting find though.
Thanks for that suggestion; I will try doing it that way. There have been situations where Swype has not always inserted a space on its own. If I knew when to expect that behavior, I would probably use the space bar less.
