Here's how I got Swype installed and working on my Kindle Fire: You will need to be rooted to do this.
1) Download the installer from your beta email or transfer it from one of your other devices (If you get an error saying "Sorry! This is not an Android Phone..." make sure your browser is set to mobile view and not desktop.)
2) Log in
3) Select your Beta version
4) Install the Swype keyboard
5) Use Root Explorer and navigate to /data/apps and find the Swype apk
6) Move the Swype apk (not the installer) to /system/apps
7) Make sure permissions are rw- r-- r--
8) Reboot your device
9) Long press on a text field, select input method, then Swype
10)When you use Swype it will constantly Force Close
11)Go back into system/app and press install on the swype apk file that you placed there
12)Then delete the same apk from system/app and reboot.
That's it, Swype should work after that without any FC issues. To minimize the keyboard swype from the Swype key to the backspace key.
