Is there an easier way to update Swype?
The latest version of Swype beta (or at least the version before the most recent version) is a bit more self-sustained.

All I had to do when I updated was to go to the Swype installer app.  It had an update for itself.  After updating, it then presented an option for me to update Swype and stepped me through the process, including disabling, updating, and then re-enabling Swype.

Now the old way of updating Swyped used to be you had to uninstall the current version and it's installer, then re-install the installer, then re-install Swype.  It seems as if they have improved on this former method (that often had me raging because it wouldn't generate the license file correctly).
