Reinstall Swype After Upgrading Android

Over the weekend my Nexus One was upgraded to build FRF91 of Android 2.2 via the over-the-air upgrade process that Todd posted about earlier. I quickly discovered that one of the consquences of the upgrade is that the Swype keyboard no longer worked. When I swipped my finger across the keyboard nothing would register. By checking the Swype beta support forum, I learned that I needed to uninstall and re-install Swype.

The beta actually has two components, an Installer and the actual Swype keyboard, and you need to remove both.
