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.

This is correct...i don't know why this company acts this way...
Anyway it will not be a big deal for us...since NRGZ tweeted this:

For Swype.. a cab will be available in the addons folder which has nothing to do with XDA. So no rules there... Just drop it in XDA_UC.. 12:06 PM Oct 20th via Digsby

PS. Seems like today i will receive my Sprint Touch Pro 2...so i will start to be more active here.
I am on XDA since a year and a half...owning a Raphael (AT&T Fuze). Before i had a Kaiser and a Elf...
I am italian, working+living in Moldova...for this reason i decided to buy a Sprint TP2...as you all know it can run 3G fine also in Europe...instead of AT&T and Tmobile versions...(european are sold at double price).
I hope to be helpful here
