Microsoft announced sales of Windows Phone 7 licenses to OEMs have topped the two million mark since the official launch about three months ago. Hard data on how many devices have been sold to customers are not available, but the numbers aren't really impressive considering Apple sold three million iPhone 4 units in little under a month after its launch.
Microsoft just dropped a few tidbits of knowledge on us regarding Windows Phone 7's performance in the marketplace so far. Here's what we've got:
* 'Early research' says 93 percent of WP7 customers are 'satisfied' and 90 percent would recommend the platform to others. We don't know details about the research, though -- number of customers polled, time frame, so on.
* Average of 100 new apps in the Marketplace per day, and over 6,500 total are available right now.
* Most importantly, "over 2 million" licenses have been sold to OEMs around the world.
