Like you I have found that swiping is flaky. Touching the dots in the lower corner of the screens seems to work 100%, though, and a long press on the launcher button brings up "icon" views of all five screens that you can tap to go directly to any home screen. I don't use swiping at all any more...
I'll probably just use the dots like you mentioned, but it would be nice if the swiping feature, which has always worked, continued to work. Oh well...life goes on.
There are 2 OTA Updates being pushed out to users.
Those that have ESE81 (aka 2.1 or 2.1 update 1) are being pushed out a smaller PTA update that patches your system to FRG01B.
Those that are not on ESE81 are being pushed out a lerger update that simply erases your \System diretory and puts the entire FroYo 2.2 OS on your phone - also FRG01B.
The end result is that regardless of which one you get, you end up with FRG01B.
Everyone who gets this: I highly recommend that after upgrading you perform a factory reset and then activate and log in and re-set up your apps.
If you do not perform a factory reset and set up all your apps again, then there are way too many variables that exist in terms of what could be causing problems, and it becomes extremely difficult to trace down.
Besides, telling people to do the factory reset is what everyone is suggesting anyway, so since this update (these updates I should say) are not being pushed out everywhere, update, then factory reset - in that order.
You are the man, johnlgalt! Thanks for the info and for your contributions on this forum.
