Morning tech news: Nvidia is slated to launch two additional models to its GeForce2Go mobile graphics line next week: the 100 and 200 models with "smaller parts," unchanged peak wattage (2.8), but with less memory than ATI's Mobility Radeon chip; Yahoo and Microsoft are part of a number of the IMUnified group of companies that will soon use a unified IM protocol in their instant messaging services to pull market share away from AOL; and Intel's open-source security library for peer-to-peer applications includes support for digital certificates, peer authentication, secure storage, public key encryption, digital signatures, and symmetric key encryption.
