Can I use the lenses I have on my nex 3 on this one?.

Yes, any lense(s) compatible with the nex 3 will be compatible with the nex 7.

Does the NEX-7 have a port for external microphones?

Unlike other NEX models, the 7 can take any standard external microphone, so yes.

how well does it shoot video and how long?

This camera is capable of shooting 60 frames per second at 1080p. In video mode it can record as sensitively as 3200 ISO. Combined with a fast lens, this camera can shoot acceptable footage indoors with practical lighting, but it really shines when you can give it enough photons to keep the ISO at 800 or slower (film speed equivalent). As for how long it can shoot, in theory, the camera's software will allow you to film continuously for 30 minutes after which it will stop recording and return to standby mode. In practice, the hardware of the camera rarely allows for shots of this length. The NEX-7 is notorious for overheating as the board heats up while shooting, compressing, saving, and discharging the battery simultaneously in such a small space. Using the ac adaptor instead of the battery can help (a little), but the reality is that the NEX-7 is suitable for projects with shot lengths less than 5 or 10 minutes, because it cannot be relied upon for ongoing documentary work like filming a wedding or a concert or play.Here is a link to some examples. All of the videos for TheStudioPortable were shot by me on my NEX-7 using a variety of manual focus (old school) lenses. Hope this helps.http://www.youtube.com/user/TheStudioPortable

Is the NEX 7 the same as the NEX 7KB?

Yes, and no. The NEX-7 refers generally to the camera. When you see the model referred to as "NEX7/B", it is referring to just the body. "NEX7K/B" is referring to the body + the kit lens. K = kit. B = black. You get the same camera body regardless. But the K/B package includes the kit lens. Both are black.
