It would seem (from some hinting I saw on a TP thread) that the key is inserted into the holes to disassemble the cube.

isn't the center caps poppable? how is the key supposed to turn the screw (if there is one)

That key works like a bottle opener. It's just for looks. You're supposed to insert the skinny extension of the outer tooth of the key into the hole, tilt, and pull. It just pops the center caps off.

A toothpick works just as well.

That seems to suggest that that key is used for disassembly. I don't know how. Push it in? Is there a spring-loaded mechanism?

EDIT: Ninja'd. There you go.
