Itineris Claims Record Number Of New Subscribers The France Telecom GSM cellular mobile service, Itineris, says it has signed up a record 73,000 new subscribers in June, including 18,000 during the week of 'Father's Day' bringing its total number of GSM cellular subscribers to 937,000. France Telecom claims that this recent success is primarily due to the new subscription option 'Declic', with one in two new subscribers signing up to the package. Declic, a low monthly subscription basic package priced at FFR100 a month (exclusive of VAT), was launched in May in anticipation of the Bouygues Telecom launch of its personal communications service. 960729
