Try a Tir-Ist-Fal Jared's Stone Please
Please forgive the new kid's ramblings, I was thinking about sorc orbs today. My brain produced the following ideas.
1. I'm bettin' that there's a 3-socket Sorc Orb Runeword out there. 3-OS being the "best" or "rarest" orbs (so to speak).
2. I started thinking about which runes, when put in weapons, don't have modifiers based on actually striking your enemy -- Not a lot of people go around whacking things with their Occys, I've noticed. These are the runes that would seem most appropriate for placing in a sorceress's orb. Runes that seem to fit that description: Tir Hel Io Lum Ko Fal Lem Ist
3. I started looking at those runes, and Tir-Ist-Fal jumped out at me. It's on the "Warcraft Clues" page, and nobody seems to have tried it yet. I googled Tirisfal (I don't play WC3 or WoW) and it seems like a pretty magical place.
4. I don't have an Ist. If anyone thinks my logic is sound and would like to produce what will most likely turn out to be a gemmed Jared's Stone, I implore you to do so. At the worst, you'll have a Jared's Stone with +2 mana per kill, +30 MF, and +10 Strength.
5. If I get an ist anytime before someone says that this failed or worked, I'll give it a shot and let y'all know; but I'm pretty poor these days (Hardcore Death is a bummer sometimes).
Sincerely,
Kurt Young

I have a 3os orb, and I have an Ist I'm willing to burn on this test. If someone on east scl can send me a Fal, that'd save me some time tonight, otherwise I can trade for one.
By the way... can anyone say for sure if Amn and Vex work in an orb to steal life/mana while casting? They are "per hit" so it's not terribly clear to me whether they'd work without physically striking...

Cherokee:
Thanks, mate. I look forward to hearing about the test.
About Vex and Amn... sadly, no... these only deliver "stolen per hit" mods if placed in an orb. It'd be sweet if one of the new runewords would transform them into "after each kill" mods, though.
Axe:
I've tried RAL-ETH in a circlet and posted it, but the failure is not reflected in your spreadsheet. I don't know if y'all are still tracking circlets as different than normal helms, but for what it's worth, RAL-ETH != a new runeword.
Cheers!

not sure if anyone has brought this up, but none of the runewords so far have 2 runes repeating right after another. Seems really pointless to have the same rune repeated. That being said, I doubt (espically in the 2os section) that runewords will have repeating runes. something to think about when ya'll get to the um*um range, could save a lot of runes.

ok, so 1 out of 49 has a repeating rune. I stand corrected.Cherokee said:

I should have one. Drop me a message when yer on.
Confirmation on the lack of mana/life leech working for spells. It only interacts with physical damage coming from actually striking something (as opposed to Magic/Poison/Lightning/Cold/Fire damage on a weapon, or even physical damage on non-weapon skills, E.G. Corpse Explosion). I hardly think casters need life leech. Most are able to stay quite a healthy distance back. Caster items are generally oriented toward having more/regenerating mana as well, and it hasn't been too much of an issue for me since Blizzard imposed casting delays, except on a few select skills, namely Nova and Corpse Explosion.
By the way, what happened to the wands? Just curious, since blizzard has produced items that give both straight poison and straight bones necromancers massive boosts, but they are lacking in the summoning stick department, unless you want to count Arm of King Leoric.
just to let you all know, i havent dropped off the face of the earth... yet. i am nearing finals and have been in the lab writing code for over 45 hours since friday afternoon(so forgive me if i sound crazy). i have decided to start up some classic sorcs to do classic rushes on west ladder. anyone who wants to donate some gear for two sorcs, it would be appreciated. but once i get that going, i should be able to get lots of guys to hell difficulty easy and provide lots of runes up to gul for testing 
happy hunting.
