I wish swype would release a version for the Windows phone, I have that on my personal smartphone (LG through Virgin Mobile) and really appreciate it.
All of that to say that if you're not charmed by the iPhone, you should indeed consider a Windows smartphone, depending on your personal needs.

I just saw on a Swype forum that WP8 doesn't support it.

Currently, WP8 does not support Swype. We would love to be on WP8 devices, but that is dependent upon Windows Phone's approach to handling third-party applications. At this point in time, Swype does not fit into Windows' vision for its Windows Phone products.
