From the page linked in Bobette's post:
The passe Navigo Découverte lasts 10 years. You can reload it as many times as you like. It is on sale at all our ticket offices and costs €5 (price at 01/09/07).
This morning I went through the train station in Poissy and they had signs posted that they no longer sell the Carte Orange coupon, only the Navigo passes. Signs urging conversion to the Navigo are more prevalent in the metro, and many stations currently have temporary tables or booths where you can sign up. The definitive end of the Carte Orange coupon seems near.
