Saudi telecoms test fix to avert BlackBerry ban RIYADH - Saudi Arabia told the kingdom's telecom operators on Saturday to test a proposed fix to the perceived national security threat posed by Research In Motion's <RIM.TO> BlackBerry smartphones, and said it would not ban service if the test was successful. The government had threatened to cut off BlackBerry's Messenger function to Saudi users on Friday, but so far has allowed the service to continue. HP CEO resigns after sex harassment investigation SAN FRANCISCO - Hewlett-Packard Co <HPQ.N> CEO Mark Hurd resigned on Friday after an investigation found that he had falsified expense reports to conceal a "close personal relationship" with a female contractor.

Lebanon wants program to access BlackBerry info BEIRUT - Lebanon hopes BlackBerry maker Research In Motion <RIM.TO> will give the country a program that would allow it to access information used on the smartphone device, the telecommunications minister said.

"We have called off this round of stakeholder discussions," said Edward Lazarus, chief of staff for Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski. Apple in talks to buy China's Handseeing HONG KONG - Apple Inc <AAPL.O> is in talks to buy Chinese software maker Handseeing, an executive at the Chinese company said on Friday, a deal that would mark the iPhone maker's first acquisition in the country.

Facebook and other social media cost UK billions LONDON - Employees who fritter time away on Facebook, Twitter and other social media Web sites are costing British businesses billions, new research suggests.
