Are there any other (international) keyboards available for the Expo?  Maybe something that can be accessed with like the ALT key on the WM Treos, perhaps? 
It's kinda hard to type in Spanish or Catalan without them.

While I'm here, are does anyone know if Cyrillic is available, too?

TIA!

Search for FingerKB at xda-developers I think it supports up to 13 languages now, most likely including Spanish.

The XT9 keypad has the option for English, Spanish and French. Go to the Start Menu > Settings > Personal > Input - change the selection to XT9 and tap the Options button underneath, then change the language.

Also, Swype can do Spanish as well, and a little easier (just tap and hold on a letter for all the character options) Just look for the WVGA version over on XDA, or search this forum - I'm pretty sure a CAB of it is attached to one of my old posts here somewhere. 

Catalan & Cyrillic - there I cannot help. KV's idea above is probably your best shot.
