how about a blue J-like rectangle (we used blue in the old logo)
with an opening at the upper left (like a rather closed J),
slightly rounded in a similar way as the real NXT logo,
and with an orange square or rectangle in the middle
(hinting at the NXT start button)?

Or maybe just a blue J in a similar rounded sans-serif font
as in Juan Antonio's current proposal, with an orange square.

Yes.

I agree, having two main columns would be quite a squeeze
(as I said, I like my font a little bigger).

Yes, and maybe the distinction NXT vs RCX can be also shown by an icon.

Yes, see my logo proposal above.

I can also make nice photos of LEGO assemblies in case that helps.
