yes.  _statistically_ it should work at least the advertised number of times. 
 after that, it may work, but they won't guarantee it.  there is also a 
nonzero chance that they'll stop working or degrade before that time, much 
like that jar of mayonnaise i had in the refrigerator that my wife forbade me 
to eat anymore after she decided it was expired.
