I was looking at those pictures on Gizmodo yesterday and noticed something: they're just photo-reproductions of pictures. While it takes a good amount of skil to do that level of vector art, at the same time it's not that hard to just reproduce a picture directly (even in vector). There's even tools to help you mirror them to a good degree as well.
A lil' bit of background: I've got an art degree in animation and graphic design. I won't deny they're impressive, but recreating what already existed in real life... it takes a bit of magic away.
The Mystery Stone? Kind of a bland name for it. I think "The Egg of Mystification" would fit better. Or "The Puzzlement Orb". They sound a lil' bit better.
Granted, the "Egg of Mystification" sounds like it should have a +3 at the end of it and be an item long sought after by D&D geeks.
How am I supposed to get the crumbs UNDER the keys with somebody like this? Pfffht. This totally defeats the purpose of having a keyboard if you can't get snacks stuck inside of it.

*slaps his forehead*. I'm getting a RFID lock.
