What exactly is the problem that you must re-install? Is it not giving you download permission after the new beta version released? I had a few issues getting mine to install properly today but after visiting their website I was able to get it up and working. I forgot to uninstall the old swype installer AND application. Further, my phone required a reboot for swype to actually work.
 
I have uninstalled all my old version and old installers and downloaded new installer and when i log in to download new beta it says i have used my max number of uses and emailed them and they said they redid my account and cleared it out and if i have troublesto read faq well duh i did and still no luck downloading. im at a loss

After the last Swype beta expired, when I tried to install the new beta, it said "Swype is already installed". Yeah, I know there's a solution to that, but aside from being fed up with having to jump through these absurd hoops to continue participation in their beta, it occurred to me that at the conclusion of the beta, they're not planning on giving us a Market option anyway - they are just planning to deal with OEM licensing, so I'll be left without a legal Swype option entirely. Since each swipe-style keyboard takes a lot of getting used to, I decided it would be better to spend the time getting familiar with Shapewriter, and so far I'm pretty happy with it. Having said that, I did like Swype, so if an official version ever hits the Market I would probably give it a try, but I don't think that's going to happen.
 
thanks Mj I thought i had read that shame good product and yea stretch I'm with you have already started using other programs. thanks for imput.

I can see your point but it is a beta. I'd feel differently if you were an officially licensed customer.

I haven't run into this particular issue or read about anyone who has. Have you Googled around at all?
