Could this be a Flash RAM issue? Flash RAM can only
be written to so many times before it begins to fail,
as I understand it. Granted, that's tens, perhaps
hundreds of thousands of writes before a bit goes.
Could that be the culprit?
Is there much talk of the Flash finite life phenomenon
around here?
