Re: How many times to you Reflash?

I have probably flashed at least 5 times with every kitchen release eperimenting and tweaking my cooked rom. I couldn't begin to figure what my flash count was.

For a device that is only meant to be programed once or a few times in its lifetime, I sure hope the flash memory doesn't wear out quick.

EDIT: I imagine there is some sort of wear-leveling since we use the program memory for whatever, but I would think there are some OS specific files, partition info, and what not that needs to be in the same sectors every time.
