Are there any stats available that tell how many pumps each manufacturer has sold?

Not that I'm aware of. The only way I could even think of figuring this out would be looking at their quarterly stock portfolios. However, generally those are in terms of financial gain and not products sold.

I googled "insulin pump statistics" to get me this link:
Google Answers: Insulin Pumps (http://answers.cbfl.net/answers/threadview?id=448466)

from 2005:
"The annual worldwide market for conventional insulin pump products is
approximately £1.5 billion. There are an estimated 400,000 insulin
pump users and their number is growing by 12 - 14% per annum."

There are approximately 200,000 insulin pump users in the United States.

Approximately 10,000 of these users have Type 2 Diabetes.

The problem is that that almost never gets updated. I found a pdf once. I'll see if I can find it again.

Actually, it quotes above the chart for "18252 pump families."
