Error message reads "The Swype package you installed is configured for another device and will operate with limited functionality.

Please contact Swype about this issue"

it types when I tap the individual keys but when I Swype I get nothing. Can anyone point in the right direction ? I need Swype on my frozen yogurt.
 
I re-sent myself the beta email and i keep getting the message "Sorry! You're not on an android phone, so you cannot download the Swype-Installer."

any suggestions?

UPDATE: ok, i had to log into my email using the browser (i was using the stock email app), apparently that helps the swype website recognize that it's an android phone...

it's downloading now.

did you use the phone to log into AOL or another mail service and get it from there? I am still having the same issue...
