Correct.  Only power through the OTG.
(Actually both micro-usb ports, but I suppose you should use the one
designed for it.)

Correct. Price is only for the board, no cables.

I have F20 minimal on one that I've been using for a build server for a
couple of months.

I have put F21 minimal on the other one I have.  But I'm really using
the kernel that comes with it.

This weekend I'm hoping to have time to mess with it again.  I want to
get it to run Fedora's kernel.  I plan on trying rawhide on it.
