I kinda like the idea of the binary code going in and readable text coming out. I also have to agree with the majority of voters here that the current logo seems to be cellular-centric. Too bad I don't have Photoshop loaded up on an of my PC's (maybe it's on my Tablet that's gather dust...).
Anyway, here's my idea:
Keep the current swirl-type effect, but change it to binary swooping/curling in from one side and text coming out the other; perhaps some famous, yet small, quote from a book that's no longer under copyright.
In the middle, where the data is swirling into, have some device mocked up that has a neutral appearance; i.e., not a cellphone, PDA, Reader, Iliad, et al., just a mobile device. You could probably get creative and emblazon a logo on the top of the device that has the initials of the forum; perhaps a backward R connected to an M (probably shouldn't use an R connected to an M's right-side, this logo is already in use by Master Replicas among others). In keeping with Jason Chapman's first image, maybe put a circle in the middle of the device's screen, with a dissolve from binary to text, indicating the the conversion from bits to recognizable material.
Just an idea that sounds and, in my mind, looks pretty darn cool. Maybe someone can go with the idea.
Edit: After catching up on page 2 of this thread, I really dug Steve Jordan's mock-up on the earlier posted device. Now going with that and changing the rings into what I described above would be cool. I also liked the idea of welcome in different languages, perhpas have those in the swirling out ring and the quite idea in the circle-dissolve on the screen of the reader. Cool ideas everyone!
