Kindle US Order

Ok, I've read a number of related posts, but want to reaffirm a few things...

I live in Toronto, and I want to purchase a Kindle 3 wi-fi from ***********. End price is $167, including duty deposit.

Here are a few of my questions:
If I drove to Buffalo to purchase, what is the duty charged at the border?
How frequently are people getting the duty refunded?
What are the obvious differences when using a Kindle in Canada? Are there any?
Are there any risks to uploading mobi files not purchased through amazon to the Kindle? What are your experiences with that.
Is the 3G surfing functionality worth the extra cost? I'd only be interested in checking email in the GTA.

Look forward to your thoughts.

Any comment on uploading mobi files? I have several hundred that I'd like to import.
