#129385 - EEPROM needs time to write
Responding to: ???'s previous message
EEPROMs (24Cxx) need time to accomplish a write - in the order of milliseconds (-> substantially more than 3 NOPs you have now). There are two ways, either wait some fixed time or follow a procedure in the EEPROM datasheet to find out exactly when the write cycle ends (the latter is faster but more complicated).

Have you seen the Atmel's appnote I mentioned above?

There are I2C memories for which the write is instantaneous (either those from Ramtron dubbed FRAM, or there are some small RAMs e.g. from Philips/NXP (the latter are volatile of course)), but you'd need to use the standard 24Cxxx anyway, don't you.
