Poor security for you. I strongly recommend using a password, and then you'll have no problems.

Quite possibly. How is your gmail set up? If through the BlackBerry Internet Server, then yes it would show up as recent activity. If you get email through the Gmail application installed on the BlackBerry, then the program has to be running to check the email, and the answer would be no.

No

Put a password on the device and you can rest easy.
