The only correct answer for a programming estimate is, "No one knows". Seriously, tomorrow morning I'm going to be in a long planning meeting where I'm going to be asked for time estimates. And this time i'm going to refuse to give any. I've spent a fair bit of time preparing my boss, my bosses boss, and people on my team for this moment, by explaining good Agile development doesn't use time estimates. I'm going to insist that I and my fellow developers will point problems using planning poker, but the points won't correspond to any fixed time amounts.
