The blur would be realistic if it were a hand held shot inside with just window lighting... should be about 1/60th at f2 (average lense) Which would produce depth of field like yours... however if I were to 'photograph' this image I would focus on the Philips Logo rather then the front of the CD tray. Remember, depth of field is on either side of the focus point, so you would need to focus on the far edge of the CD tray which should allow the logo and most of the tray face to be in focus... right now you are wasting a bit of 'focus' area on the featureless foreground surface of the DVD player.
A minor critique, but if this were one of my photographs, I'd be forced to discard it due to what I would consider to be a focusing error on my part.
Also, I'm assuming the material is supposed to be high gloss melamine? I do believe it's just a few percentage points too reflective... note the area below the vertical divider, it looks a lot like metal. A very slight bump to the reflection blurring should solve that...
wonderful image tho... I love it.

If we had just one lowly SuperStarDestroyer, all of earth's problems would rapidly become rather trite. I mean, who worries about war in the middle east when a 1.5km death triangle is in orbit.
