Don, glad you're enjoying your WS.
a) You can get a belt cleaner (looks like a supersize gum eraser) cheap. I got mine for about $5 at Harbor Freight, using the 20% off coupon (and got a digital multimeter free with another coupon).
b) If you register your WS online at their website, they'll send you a set of the 3 standard belts for free. You could make good use of a few "in between" belts as well, maybe a couple of P400 or P600s, and a couple of 1800s:

c) Rounding the tips is the biggest danger with the WS, IMO. But there's a lot of good advice on how to avoid it in this thread, and in this one:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/765050-Work-Sharp-Knife-Sharpener That's a lot to read, but worth it if you want to really learn about the WS. Put on a pot of coffee, or chill an adult beverage if it's later in the day, and read 'em all.
This is a crude summary, but to avoid rounding the tip: tilt the knife handle up as you go through the belly; don't take the tip more than about 1/3 of the way onto the belt; release the motor switch as you get to the tip; and maintain a very light touch in the tip area. If you still round a tip (and I've rounded my share), the WS can also give you a head start on restoring it, which you may need to follow up with hand sanding/shaping. Note, though, that when using the WS to re-shape a tip, you'll build up more heat than with sharpening. You don't want to damage the knife's temper, so do it in short bursts and keep a cup of water close by to cool the blade with.
