Interesting business model Swype has:
-We don't want you to use our product for free (perfectly understandable)
-We don't want to sell our product to you (even you would pay us much more for the product, maybe $2.99) because you are too much trouble, even though you are our natural customer that loves our product.
-We will sell our product to Microsoft and Google (maybe for $0.40)

It is like GM or Ford saying, dealing with dealers and customers is too much work. We will only sell to car rental customers, so people can drive our cars and see how good they are, but they can't buy them. Car dealers buy cars in bulk at prices where car companies don't make hardly any money. Before it went broke, Chrysler was selling 80% of their vehicles to fleets, we all know how the story ended.
