Yes, per the Sony website it has Accessory Terminal : Multi connector, Audio/Video Output(s) via Mutli-Use Connector, HD Output (1080i), USB Port(s) USB2.0 Hi-Speed. When I plug this into a USB port, the battery is charged and it powers my camera at the same time. Also the battery lasted all day, with me taking pictures and letting family view them on the screen. I purchased a second "backup" battery, just in case, and have not needed it yet.

No the internal memory that comes with the camera will hold 3-4 shots. You will need a memory card.

It does have smile detection. No idea if it's the same as the other person's. I haven't used it too much yet, but you can set how much of a smile you want it to detect before it snaps the picture. (A slight smile, some teeth in the smile, or a big smile).
