In promiscuous mode your sensor doesn't affect the traffic but it only listen and analyze it.

In inline mode you direct all your traffic on this network segment you want to protect to IPS and it analyze it and block some actions according to your settings.

It is the main difference. Which mode to prefer must be your decision.

with inline mode, do you actually plug the connection from the Internet in what would normally be your promiscous interface? I'm a little confused on how traffic is routed to the IPS first and then on to the firewall.
