I could write a long post about all the things that Microsoft executive Joe Belfiore, director of the Windows Phone program at the software giant, said at the D: Dive Into Mobile conference in San Francisco.

But it&'s mostly stuff you&'ve heard before. Far more important was what he didn&'t say: How many phones Microsoft has sold since Windows Phone 7&'s splashy launch last month.

Without sales figures, Microsoft&'s mobile hype is all talk. The company never hesitates to brag about how many Windows operating systems licenses it&'s sold, after all.

Great haircut, Joe. Now get some numbers and you&'ll really be styling.
