missing pile of stylus

I have a pocket pda phone, the XV6700 from Verizon. Its my first PDA and I am having great fun with it. When I first got it I was worried that I'd lose the stylus -- since everyone constantly moans about that. So I took great care to always replace it. And for the first 6 months I had no problems.

Now, in the span of 2 weeks I have lost 2 stylus. I imagine there is a stylus monster somewhere eating up my stylus and waiting for more. Incorrigable brat.
