Slow EEPROM

The Basic Manual states the EEPROM is slow and not reccomended for timing critical applications. How slow are we talking here? Can someone give me an idea of the time in microseconds it takes to READ and WRITE to EEPROM? I'm thinking of getting the BS2sx.

Thanks.

On another note, I can't seem to search to forums for more than one keyword. I always get the message "There were no matching records for your search". Any ideas?

    Reading from EEPROM is roughly the same as any other statement in PBasic. Writing to any location in EEPROM requires about 5 milliseconds regardless of which Stamp you're using.
