I don't know if anyone has ever encountered this problem but despite only having used the stylus twice in the 8 months that I've owned the 650, the stylus has become lose and if I turn the unit upside down it will simply fall out. Can anyone think of a reason for this? I'm not sure what is holding the stylus in place in the first place. Friction? Magnetism? I tried placing it against a fridge magnet but the stylus wouldn't stick to it at all! Is there anyway I can fix this problem? Like I said I never use the stylus but I would prefer not losing it somewhere.
