Windows Phone is selling way better than last year

Microsoft’s chief executive Steve Ballmer made a brief but very interesting appearance at Qualcomm’s keynote at the CES 2013. One of the most discussed parts of his statement seems to be what he said about Windows Phone sales.

“Windows Phone was selling five times more devices than the same period last year,” – Ballmer said, referring to the periods around Christmas and New Year.

Well said, but just how much is that? We’d guess – a couple of million handsets, taking into consideration the overall modest sales of Windows Phone.
