While it has shorter range (close) and needs a ranged touch to hit (ray), it also has the added advantage of being able to score a critical (ok, not that good), but it becomes extremely  powerful in the hands of a necromancer or someone with the "Lich Touched" (? - the one previewed in dungeon 111, turning a character into a semi -undead healed by negative energy ) , who suddenly not only has a unlimited shots offensive weapon in his hands, but also an "unlimited healing" item for his undead (or even himself )..... So he can kill/fry any small stuff without even wasting any of his own arsenal at leisure, and save his more potent magics for the big menaces.... Sorry - that is major gain in power. 9000gp won't do for that at all .So even if it does not appear "overly broken" for magic missiles, it may become very much so for some dual-purpose spells... Or something like a wand of unlimited "Invisibility"... or "Haste"...  And basically - it is the GM's choice, it his campaign after all.</blockquote>
