Of these two logos that I sent, my preference is for the second.
My personal opinion is that you shouldn't try and get too hung up about the acronym that you are trying to capture and represent... (I say this even though I did my best to incorporate the letters... blah). I think sometimes that capturing the concept is more important than capturing the acronym.
Case in point, take a look at the USB logo:

The logo is incredibly simple and doesn't try and spell out USB.. however, it does capture the essence of the interface and what it seeks to accomplish and I think that is what makes it memorable.
That is really all I wanted to drop by and say. -Mike
The problem with that is that we aren't just talking about one standard, but in the end we are talking about multiple very similar standards, so it would probably be more confusing not to incorporate textual reference that easily can be searched as a keyword to find out what the symbol means. The numbers and letters probably have to be incorporated, as inelegant as it may sound.
