From Wikipedia:
"The 3.5 in liquid crystal display (320×480 px at 160 ppi) HVGA touch screen topped with optical-quality, scratch-resistant glass[41] is specifically created for use with a finger, or multiple fingers for multi-touch sensing. Because the screen is a capacitive touch screen, no stylus is needed, nor can one be used.[42][13] Bare skin is a requirement; users wearing gloves would have to remove them to use the touchpad,[43] unless they are wearing electrically conductive gloves.[44]"
Emphasis mine.
The reason why no stylus support is a problem is because stylii allow for more precise touch commands than fingers do.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
