After loading up ROMs off and on for the last couple months, and having to re-download Swype each time, today I got the message, "you have installed Swype the maximum number of times."
I love(d) Swype, but that's the last straw. After putting up with the bug where you have to switch to the android keyboard and back every time you reboot your phone, and putting up with having to re-download Swype from their server every time you load a new ROM, now they are telling me AFTER THE FACT that there is a limit to the number of times I can do this ....
SCREW them. I'm going to have to try to get used to Shapewriter, because NO keyboard is worth all the hoops Swype makes you jump through - and for what? After patiently dealing with the inconveniences of the Swype beta for the last couple months, they freakin pull the rug out from under me without so much as a WARNING? How freakin hard would it have been to display a message like, "Warning: you have three installs remaining"?
That's it. I know they won't miss me, one measly user in a sea of loyal followers. But I'll say one thing: I used to sing the praises of Swype to everyone who would listen, and now I'm going to keep my mouth shut about Swype and recommend alternatives. For example, I'm writing this with Shapewriter and it's really pretty good. Just my little personal protest, if for nothing else than to make me feel better.
