Well, I do the opposite, especially when I "only" had the 1GB Lexar CF cards, I always delete bad frames during the day, and I have NEVER experienced corrupt cards or lost files in just over 3 years and nearly 90,000 frames in my 1D Mk2....... And I have always format the cards in camera in the 3 years, NEVER had a problem either, in fact I don't remember ever formatting the cards on the computer.
