An annular solar eclipse will occur this weekend, giving people in Southeast Asia and the western U.S. the chance to witness something truly amazing. If you want to watch the solar eclipse but aren’t sure what time it’ll be visible in your area, there are a couple different ways you can figure it out.

At the end of last year, an Administrative Law Judge issued an initial ruling that Motorola’s mobile devices infringe a bit of Microsoft’s IP. Nu, the Commission has affirmed that decision and issued an exclusion order to ban Moto’s offending devices from importation into the US. In case you weren’t aware, the four patent claims at issue generally cover technology for scheduling meetings over email using a mobile enhed. Så, unless Motorola removes the feature, pays for a license or whips up a workaround Microsoft’s patent in short order, its inbound RAZRs, Droid 4s, Bionics and other offending handsets will be stuck in customs alongside HTC’s One X and EVO 4G LTE — that is, unless Obama steps in to save the day during the prescribed presidential review period. Microsoft, naturally, is quite pleased with this development and has issued a statement:

If you are thinking about changing your online payment provider, you should take a moment to look at an interesting infographic from ansøgning performance management company New Relic. Turns out the most popular provider, PayPal, isn’t even close to being the fastest processor. That distinction goes to Google Checkout. PayPal has the market share, but if performance is the critical metric for your company, you might want to consider the alternatives.

This week as Facebook goes public with their IPO with NASDAQ, developers at the social network have celebrated in their own special way – by hacking the stock exchange’s starting bell. What you’re about to see are some relatively simple behind-the-scenes images taken by a few developers working at Facebook specifically on the NASDAQ bell ringer Mark Zuckerberg used this morning to open the stock exchange as well as the listing of Facebook for the first time in history to the public. As it turns out, Zuckerberg wasn’t just ringing a bell, he was posting a Facebook status at the same time as well!

Microsoft will be rolling out a deal this weekend that you may have heard of briefly the one time they did it before: purchase a brand new Windows-based PC for $699 or more and get an Xbox 360 for free. It’s one of those offers that just makes sense when it comes to the software/hardware company whose fortunes are based in both the Windows 7 og 8 (coming this summer) operating systems as well as the gaming machine, this deal made perfect for students coming up on the summer season. Imagine that, starting a gaming deal up right as school get left out – genius move, or would prospective gamers rather play out in the sun?

On the eve of the Facebook public offering it appears that Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin has buried the hatchet once and for all, offering congratulations to the Facebook staff and Zuckerberg specifically as well. Saverin was portrayed in the Hollywood portrayal of the Facebook story “The Social Network” as a founder of Facebook that was betrayed and pushed out by Zuckerberg – the real life story appears to be a bit sweeter in the end. Saverin also caught some press this month for renouncing his US citizenship in order to dodge the massive taxes he would otherwise have to pay now that his share of the Facebook IPO is going big.

If your cine-cave is already decked out with the Super Hi-Vision display, the Super Hi-Vision kamera, and the Super Hi-Vision-supping antenna, we guess you just need the 120fps Super Hi-Vision projector to complete the set? Guess what? Working with JVC, NHK has developed just that. It might not be much to look at, but that hunk of tech up there comes with the extra frame rate that also makes it play fast nice with the sensor technology NHK was kind enough to develop first. The projector will be giving its first public demos on May 24th , and we hope that 7680 x 4320 resolution will make all those hi-res skate-slams come out a charm.

There’s been hints of it coming as early as February, but we now have a smoking gun at the FCC: the Galaxy S III is coming to T-Mobile. A Samsung SGH-T999 has popped up at the agency sporting newly added 1,700MHz AWS support that’s the telltale sign of a T-Mobile enhed, along with the T999 name itself (the T989 is the network’s Galaxy S II). It also totes 850MHz and 1,900MHz WCDMA bands being used for HSPA+ data rather than just voice, a clue that the phone is ready for refarmed GSM spectrum. Just in case there was any remaining doubt, we’ve further spotted a related T999V entry at the Bluetooth SIG with a rather familiar-looking image as well as a Samsung-hosted T999 user agent profile on the web that matches what we know about the Android 4.0 hardware. We have yet to get a look at whether or not the T-Mobile version is any different on the outside, but with the FCC’s help, there’s not much left to know before the expected summer US launch.
