There is a live counter there at their page showing the overall number of GSM subscribers growing every second...

Are you sure. I cant find any reference to it on the orange website or on the gsm website.
Oranges website lists:3G, GPRS and High speed data (HDCSD)

It's just following statistics. Simple to make a counter to estimate the numbers.
The point is anyway there are about 1.7 BILLION GSM customers worldwide!
In 2005 alone, in average 1 million new GSM subscribers were added every single day!!

And I remember some people argued that EDGE was dead last year. They didn't exactly use the word "dead". Stop-gap or not; EDGE rocks!

EDGE is brilliant alongside 3G or where networks have no plans of launching 3G networks.
