Yes, with the Portable Video Adaptor (plugs into the back, converts the
portable to standard monitor, NTSC, PAL and Secam. Note: this won't ship
immediately). Extended keyborad: yes, there's a standard ADB port in the
back.

A standard (actually, new, low-power mouse that will be merged into all
product lines) mouse is included. Plugs into the ADB port in the back.

All of the ports you've come to know and love on the Macs are back there,
including one ADB (instead of two, since all the portable ADB connections
are internal), SCSI, the video adaptor, etc. The Portable, by the way, has
the Mac 2 stereo chip on it.
