  We examine the implications of including corrections associated with the
noncommutative extension of quantum electrodynamics - NCQED - to the decays of
the ortho and para positronium (\Trip and \Sing) ground states. In NCQED, the
well known charge conjugation argument restricting \Trip decays to an odd
number of photons and \Sing decays to an even number of photons no longer
obtains. Instead, the dominant two photon decay mode of \Sing is accompanied by
a three photon mode. The dominant three photon decay mode of \Trip receives a
NCQED correction, but there is no corresponding two photon decay mode in the
weak binding limit. These corrections to the $P_s$ three photon decay mode have
a different energy distribution, but their effect is too small to explain any
discrepancy between the observed and calculated values of the \Trip lifetime.
