Forget ten;
apparently one well-known chip manufacturer quoted three
years at
us the other week for their latest generation of devices. I believe
that's
three years whether the thing's on or not too - natural decay of the
IC, not
something brought about by it being powered.
What "well-known chip manufacturer"? I find it hard to believe three
years as a target...they would be forcing themselves out of many, many
markets, effectively shooting themselves in the foot.

Damn sure, As senior bottle washer and code monkey for a small display
manufacturer, I would like to know what company is stupid enough to
quote 3 years.
