IMO, provided you are somehow offering a visible definition of the acronym or abbreviation - be it by use of a specific tag, or the ill-fated title attribute - I think you have achieved your objective.
Or even the traditional way: Web Standards Group (WSG) the first time it is mentioned on the page.
Frankly, at the moment it still seems that ALT and TITLE perform better cross-browser and also have the added benefit of not being mis-applied or misunderstood.
The alt attribute is of course only applicable on images, while the title attribute does nothing on <abbr> in MSIE (Windows), since it does not understand <abbr>.
