cool card I suppose. maybe a voltaic key to keep it untapped during opponents' turns? what could be used to tap it just before your turn?

Good ole Icy Manipulator will do the trick, though for this particular card, Lodestone Myr is better.

Why loadstone myr? You could only untap the myr and another artifact to give it +1/+1. Am I missing something?

Yes, TheWrathofShane, you are missing something. The point of using Lodestone Myr is not to boost the Myr, but to provide an efficient way to tap the Static Orb just before your turn. That way you get to untap all of your stuff each turn and your opponents only get to untap two permanents on each of their turns.
