Happy Sharepointing... Regards SPTECH07

Answer 3

SpTech07 is correct for the permissions. Audiences won't work as they're not a security mechanism. They'll show/hide the item, but the user could still navigate to the item directly.

You could also implement an event receiver for the list that would detect the appropriate column value and set the permissions for the correct user.

The one thing that I would add is that in SharePoint 2010 there is now a throttle for unique permissions on a library; if you're going to have a few thousand (or more) items you may wind up having too many permissions for the throttle.
