Kam,

I can't speak for the EC Expansion, but I did buy the RS Expansion a few
years ago. IMHO, it's hardly worth it. Fifty bucks for a few pieces and a
motor. The software has a few interesting ideas, but nothing I would pay
$50 for.

I would rather recommend the Ultimate Builder's Expansion or the Ultimate
Accessory Expansion. Both have a good selection of parts and the UAE comes
with a remote control, lamp and a rotation sensor, all three of which can
be invaluable.
