Hi,

1. ArcGIS for Silverlight can use maps from ArcGIS Server REST services and other basemaps from ArcGIS online and also from Microsoft Bing.

2. For custom 3D Maps I am not sure , since it has been done in one of the samples.

3. ArcGIS for Silverlight is a freely downloadable API from ESRI.

1: What ever you want, Bing maps, ArcGIS Server/Online, OpenStreetMap, WMS, WMTS, [Insert custom layer type here]
2: No.
3: It depends. For some uses it's free, for others it's not. You should contact your local esri dealer for specific details on licensing and price. Also when using Bing Maps, you will need to license that data from Microsoft as well.
