According to ATMEL specs the memory chip should take a minimum of "100,000 Program/Erase Cycles Per Page".
5 data records should be hold by page (2560 records/512 pages).
Using the minimal interval of 1 record per minute, assuming 5 pages cycles are done per single page in 42 hours, if my math serves me right and I am understanding this correctly, this means theoretically the chip should pay us at least 96 years of service (100000/5= 20000*42 / 24 / 365).
So it would seem in terms of hardware wear it's pretty much irrelevant the interval you will pick, unless you want to make sure you will pass a working WeatherDuino to your great-grandchildren and beyond....
BTW, will it take long for the new software version to be released?
