7-pack phone numbers missing?

Has anyone else noticed on Google's 7-pack local results, the phone numbers are now MIA?

Now you have to click into the listing in order to get the phone number for the business...

Is this just a way to track how many people are using it, and in what ways, or is there something bigger at play here? What do you think?

Hmmphf. They're back now, but two hours ago when I posted, they were still missing.

That's odd. Usually I get results off a data center that seems ahead of the pack and shows updates first. But the numbers were still missing this morning. When did they first begin to show up again for you?

I may be wrong but I thought I read somewhere that G was experimenting with this. I am trying to look for it and if I find where I read it, I'll post the link. I briefly skimmed an article or something on the web that talked about the numbers missing.
