    2, 3 & 6 are my preference.
    I think the type is too dominant in 2 though, the balance between type and mark is a little off but with a bit of tweaking could be a very simple mark. I like how unfussy it is (as opposed to 8 & 9). I also think that a more abstract route is better. Anything that relies on cables etc is going to get out dated pretty quickly. A Cat 5 cable could be the best at the moment but wireless could be the way forward in technology then the mark is based on obsolete technology.

    I like 3 but I don't really know why (I know that doesn't help) but I like the blue triangle and Im thinking it represents the speech bubble, just not sure how at the moment. Did you try it beneath the 'VDI' to make that an abstracted speech bubble instead of actually illustrating a bubble?

    I like 6 but probably the least of the others, simple, references communications but it isn't very unique at the moment. It needs something else.

    Also of all the ligatures I prefer that of number 2, I think in 3 & 6 the space is needed between the v and d, even if its just a notch. Actually you could try a more cubic blocky font and use a small notch between the v & d to hint at the whole speech bubble thingy or bring the bottom of the v down to a sharp point and theres the angle of the speech bubble.

    For some reason I keep typing 'speach' first then changing it to 'speech'. Im now not even sure which is correct but I can't be arsed checking.
