A limited version of the keyring would be quite valuable... I wonder if
people who have already ordered the first version would like to get it
anyways?-)

Quite valuable in what sense?  It's not as though it's a limited or rare
version of a common item like a stamp or a coin; it's a rare version of an
item that is itself likely to be quite rare.  Any value it has is likely to
be mostly sentimental and/or confined to the (relatively) small community
of people who know what POV-Ray is and know that the "real" keychains don't
have the small logo on the back.

Of course, that shouldn't stop those who've already received the ones with
the small logos from trying to make a quick buck off a sucker^Wfellow 
inhabitant of these newsgroups.

Like Ken, I'd actually like to have one of those that are flawed, simply
because I'm a bit of a collector and that sort of thing appeals to me.

I wouldn't do that  :-)  Well, for $50 I might.  No one actually got
delivery of the first ones, did they?
Oh-oh.  Now I fear Mr. Cason is going to ask for an additional $5 for the
rare kind.  ;-)

At least one person, and possibly more, got the original ones through Lutz.

Chris, I noticed no updated picture showing the keyring without that small
logo.  Thought I better mention it since people ordering would be expecting
what they see there.

As reference, I'm talking about:  http://www.povray.org/keyring/
