Microsoft VP Joe Belfiore declined to talk numbers Tuesday during his
onstage interview at the D: Dive Into
Mobile conference, but he did admit that the Windows Phone 7 platform might
take as long as 2 years to
catch up to Apple's iPhone and Google's Android.
Belfiore, who is Microsoft's director of Windows Phone Program Management,
evaded direct questions
regarding Windows Phone 7 sales, as Walt Mossberg of The Wall Street Journal
pressed him to reveal a hard
sales number, Engadget reports.
When Mossberg asked Belfiore how Windows Phone 7 is doing, Belfiore replied,
"So far, so good. We've tried
to make the launch go well. We wanted to get all the devices in the market,
we didn't make that happen, but
now we have 10 products around the world. We've ramped our ads up."
Unsatisfied with the vagueness of the response, Mossberg asked how many
devices Windows had sold.
Belfiore answered, "We're not talking numbers." Mossberg hinted that not
mentioning numbers suggests
poor sales, but Belfiore dismissed the suggestion, claiming it's just "too
soon" to discuss numbers.
Throughout the interview, Mossberg continued to press Belfiore on Microsoft'
s latest mobile operating
system. "How is this device different?" Mossberg asked Belfiore. When
Belfiore referenced the dedicated
camera button, Mossberg replied, "Other people have camera buttons."
"How soon until you get back into the market, before you're back to
profitability, back to a good
marketshare, up there with Android and Apple?" Mossberg asked. Belfiore
admitted he didn't know. When
Mossberg suggested a couple of years, Belfiore answered, "Maybe."
The Redmond, Wash., software giant unveiled the first 9 WP7 handsets in
October, with devices from Dell,
HTC, LG and Samsung.
Windows Phone 7 failed to make much of a splash when it launched in the U.S.
in early November. Though
a few stores attracted lines on launch day, reports suggested that only "a
small handful" made purchase,
with most of the customers interested in just the free concert tickets that
were being given away for the
launch.
Reports detailing informal checks with retailers suggest that initial sales
Windows Phone 7 have been
lackluster. Some estimates place the total number of units sold in the tens
of thousands.
Initial reviews of the platform were mixed. Most reviewers were impressed
with Microsoft's new user
interface, but found it lacking when compared to iOS and Android.
A lack of interest in Windows Phone 7 has some developers thinking twice
about the WP7 platform.
Microsoft has reportedly blocked developers from seeing sales figures for
their apps, withholding payments
to app developers until February 2011.
In a blog post, developer Justin James suggested that developers should
consider Windows Phone 7 a
"hobby or a learning experience rather than a source of revenue until the
App Hub issues are sorted out."
