I'd say you should at least try 2 tables at 1/2 before going to 2/4. I believe bankroll requirements should be pretty close for multitabling and single table, keeping in mind though that a slight drop in your bb/100 is to be expected for each table added.

In light of recent developments, part of your decision should be based on your poker goals. Are you still trying to develop your internet game, or are you hunkering down for the long winter and preparing for B&M? If the former, multitabling is a pretty necessary component as once you're used to it, you'll probably want to at least 4 table the highest limit you're comfortable with and rolled for.

Getting the hang of multitabling is partially just regular poker playing experience. Have you logged 50k hands yet? I think that's about the point most folks should be able to handle a second table. Eventually playing one table will feel very slow to you.
