As for XML data, if it is in GeoRSS or GML format then you can use this module: http://bingmapsv7modules.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=GeoRSS%20Plugin

If it is in GPX format you can use this module: http://bingmapsv7modules.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=GPX%20Parser

For custom infoboxes in Bing Maps there are two options. The first is to use the built in infobox control and set the html content property. I have a blog post on how to do this here: http://rbrundritt.wordpress.com/2011/11/08/simple-custom-infoboxes-in-bing-maps-v7/

The second method is to use the custom infobox module I created for Bing Maps V7 here: http://bingmapsv7modules.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Custom%20Infobox%20Control
