No -- with expanded mana regeneration, the manastone becomes useless. What makes the manastone so awesome is the fact that max mana regen through Velious is garbage. There is no flowing thought or AAs or anything of the like. It takes for-the-fuck-ever to med from OOM to full. And when you're porting out clerics, it would typically be in raid or grouped situations, when druid mana means dick anyway. Clerics are all-important.
I don't know what eras you played in, but porting out for manastone usage is literally an every-day strategy in Kunark and Velious. Both for soloing and for raiding.

Druids / Wizards / Clerics do this now while raiding the planes? And even with expanded flowing thought, the manstone is still instant clicky! If it's so useful that still beat's any amount of flowing thought of mana you get per 3 second tic. And porting / gating around is even less of a drop in the bucket, right?
Seems to me with your reasoning the manastone should never ever be useless, no matter how much flowing thought you have. Once the nostalgia of actually owning a manastone wears off, most people will sell em at a loss to what they originally paid for it.

If you don't want one, don't buy one, but your irritation and implications will not lower the price.

I have one, and right now it's awesome. Come Kunark tho .. If people are paying 250k+? Bet your sweet ass mine will be the first up for sale. And you linked some circle click pants? I thought it was gonna be a link to the elder's BP which is a little closer than some skyshrine faction quest pants for an expansion that's who-knows how long away from now, 2 years? heh.
