An APC tech told me you could only update the firmware after a cold boot of the device, and it wasn't safe to do while equipment was being powered by it. This true?

Pick them up cheap off ebay. Never noticed a problem. Do ensure that you have the latest version of the firmware - you can download it from APCs web site.

I do seem to recall that some of the earlier APC management cards were 10 Mbit link speed and did not auto-negotiate well, but nailing the switch port at the proper speed resolved the issue.

Anything not apc, or at least better I can use for snmp mgmt. of this device? Maybe something that hooks up to the serial port? The interface was always dog slow and I shudder to buy another...
