Cool! Future updates should be much easier, since you just have to
connect your M1 to the internet and click the "web update" button.

No, USB drives are not supported.

You can use FTP clients like Cyberduck or FileZilla to transfer files
with the M1 over the Ethernet network:
http://cyberduck.ch/
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
To use this, just go to "System Settings", write down the IP address (or
set one if you are not using DHCP), and set a login and password under
"Remote access" (FTP won't be enabled without login and password). You
should just have to enter those parameters in the FTP program to
transfer files as you wish.

It's being written
(http://www.milkymist.org/snapshots/2011-05-09/doc/handbook.pdf). In the
meantime, you can check the MilkDrop guides which largely apply to the
Flickernoise patching language as well:

Those are the RCA plugs. What I meant is that with future versions of
the software you could connect several cameras and switch between them
using patch commands. Mixing several cameras simultaneously is not
possible.
