RE: HP-48 FRAM Cards
Yes READ and WRITE BOTH wear out FRAM. 1 Trillion cycles is on the order of what I read as well, this applies to read and write. The act of reading FRAM erase the data so every read is followed by a right to rewrite the data back.

See article below for some comparison with MRAM

I agree this makes FRAM less desirable for the HP48GX or in my case the HP48SX. I only learned these facts after buying the cards, so I now use the for back up purposes and use SRAM for normal use

Even so, I found this FRAM vs. FLASH article interesting. And here's an article on power consumption. And this YouTube Video shows FRAM vs SRAM vs EEPROM. This TI PDF says FRAM has 1 trillion READ/WRITE cycles.

These articles and videos, when viewed along side your experience, would indicate that FRAM used in 48GX cards is somehow flawed or inferior. Wouldn't you agree?
