Only you can judge. I have not used my card reader for a long time.

Basically, wait until you have a real need for something, then go shopping. A spare HP41 may make sense, but in general, wait until you know you need things.

Module shells can be converted to Clonix modules, but it make sense to use the cheapest modules for this. (I have no idea about module prices).

You may want to be able to transfer to and from your HP41, the CL has a serial port that can be used. Apart from that, there are HPIL and the Wand (input only) which I do use from time to time, but not the card reader. I do not even know if mine still works...

Otherwise Clonix modules are small and nice, especially useful on plain HP41s.
