Default How Many Times Can I Flash my HTC?

I am sure like many of you, I am trying different ROMs from the various "chefs" in this forum. I must be on my 10th different ROM version by now (current ROM I am using is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462235, seems quite stable and fast).

My question is; "is there a limit to the number of times the HTC Touch HD can be flashed?", I know from previous devices there is a limit that ROM can be flashed (usually around 600), I just want to know the HTC Touch figure as I will stop playing around with ROMs so much if this figure is low enough.

I would think that there would be no limit as long as your careful and not screwing around with the radio's and SPL too much, for any device.
My Device(s):
Phone: T-Mobile HTC One ROM: Stock 4.1.2 - Accesories: Bear Motion Premium Slim Back Cover

This phone is amazing. Bravo HTC, bravo .

i think it is related to the question about flash rom life....as mlc memory chip may have lesser rewrite times.

but should be enough for thousands :)
