The biggest question on my mind is whether any area from the display is cut off by the wing design.

Rob said (in the other thread) that it will be fine in the final production model and won't cut off any of the display pixels.

My next big question is what were the other rejected designs?

I asked Rob this same question in a private e-mail, and he said the other rejected designs won't be shown to anyone except the few people who already saw them and were involved in the decision-making process. Since there's no way to change the design now, there's no point in showing people something they can't have. Rob said that the designs ranged from conservative to outrageous, and this one was somewhere in the middle. Personally, I think it's great.

Why an airplane wing? Explain the symbolism...

It's just a "designer thing". I'm sure there was no symbolism involved. Designers just like to work from unified graphic themes which give the piece a sort of cohesiveness. It was just a shape to start with and a theme to follow.
