2) you can power on from suspend (S3) using IR or BT remote, but not from cold off (S5)
3) it will return to last state when power lost, but if in S3 then it will stay off (since it can't go back to S3).  I've had a few people request that the box power on whenever power is connected, so I do a custom firmware mod for that, but the default is as I described before. 

Thanks for quick reply.
Will look for an IR receiver then...
