newbie questions about Kindle 3G

I don't have a Kindle yet. I plan to order the 3G version soon.

After browsing this website and reading the FAQ section, I stiil have a few
newbie questions:

(1) does Amazon guarantee free 3G access "forever"(downloding books,
simple internet browsing, checking Gmail, etc)?

(2) can I put non-DRM books(PDF, MOBI, or EPUB converted to MOBI,
from non-Amazon sources on the Kindle? If so, can Amazon see which
such books are on my Kindle? Obviously Amazon knows what books I've
bought from them. I just want to know if they can monitor what I read.

(3) the sound from the headphone jack... is it mono or stereo?

(4) can the Kindle ignore the font colors specified on websites? (i.e. make them
all black for easier reading) I can do this on my IE browser on my PC.

(5) can the Kindle connect to the internet in foreign countries that use GSM?

(6) since the Kindle can browse the internet, can it be affected by viruses?

Thanks very much for your help!
