Re: medical question???what is the side effect of flashing the device too many times?
Same as using a USB drive my guess..
flashing would be no different then reading and writing pictures to your device. IT wont get bad sectors cause it is not magnetic media, in this case its wear corruption but modern flash tech is pretty good where they tried to destroy a USB stick by writing 16,000,000 cycles to the same spot and it was still intact. Aka dont worry about it, only thing flashing causes is anxiety to the user

Re: medical question???what is the side effect of flashing the device too many times?
Most FLASH ROMs have at least 10,000 write cycles. This means that you should be FLASH the device at least 10,000 times. In practice many are closer to 100,000+ cycles.
I can't speak specifically about the TP2 but only in general terms for FLASH ROMs. |

Too funny...25 times...lol.
Seriously, it's more like the 10,000 from everything I've ever read. You'll wear out before your device does from flashing.

Hitchhiker: No...NO you got it all wrong! It's 7 ROM flashes, not 6! 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office.
