1. Yes. Over the last 3 years there have been lots of questions from
people using OneNote 2003 for legal work.

2. Yes in my view. The one thing you should check is that there is an
upgrade path from OneNote 2007 Beta 2 to OneNote RTM. I assume there
is. Patrick is more active in the beta than I am so will probably know
about that.

3. OneNote 2003 will handle really large files. BUT before you start
plan how you want to divide up your notes. How you do that differs
between OneNote 2003 and OneNote 2007.

4. Depends on what types of loss you want to cover. If you backup to a
hard disk and the computer is stolen the answer is No. If you backup
to a memory stick and keep the stick with the computer in a room that
burns down the answer is No. Decide what risks you want to cover. If
you are using OneNote to store your academic "life" then make sure
that you backup (maybe weekly?) to some off-site store. At least
that's what I would do if the data were crucial to my academic
progress.
