I have an NTG-3 and can attest to its good quality (and no, I'm not interested in selling it! <grin>).
For the XLR-to-mini adapter and phantom power supply, consider rolling both operations into one device and look at one of the excellent Juicedlink adapters that supply phantom. I've got the 431 and it's a very nice unit. There are two channel versions that cost a bit less.
Fot the boom, can't help you much with suggestions in your budget. I looked long and hard and finally settled on a 12' Loon boom, but I'm sure that's quite a bit higher than you'll want to go. For a mount, I'm sold on the Rycote Invisions - the #7 is perfect with the Rode and is only $75.
