What is frustrating about this is that I would gladly pay $10-$20 for Swype on my phone, and I have never bought another app. They must be making a lot from preloads, or the preload agreements stipulate that they cannot sell the app through other channels, because everyone I know with an Android phone would do the same. Seems like a lot of lost opportunity.
