I'm wondering what's the advice on whether it's worth expanding the memory or not. Are expansion cards getting thin on the ground and expensive? Once I start adding programs am I likely to benefit from expansion?

Unless you are using the HP48GX as a data collector, you probably only need to get two cards: a 128KB for card slot 1, and 2MB for card slot 2. In truth though, I have never filled the 2MB card beyond 2-3 banks (i.e. only about 512KB to 756KB were used), mostly archives of stuff that I usually had as backups for card slot 1.
