You won't really know if they could have fit the stylus in the device or not without opening it up and seeing what's inside. I guess I should restate my earlier opinion to be "if" it came down to a decision of increasing the size of the device to hold a stylus, I'd prefer they kept it small.
For comparison: BeBook Neo, iRex 800S and Sony 900.
I've partially pulled out the styli from BeBook Neo and Sony 900.
Bezel of BeBook Neo is wider at the bottom (to make room for the 5-way-buttons). But if we look at the bezel on the left side, where they put the stylus into BeBook Neo, it's about identical to iRex 800. And Sony 900 on the left is similar.
