1) Yes, for now anyway. Ask me in two years and it will be mostly progressive.
2)Yes
3) Yes, If I see jaggies now, it's the fault of the DVD.
4) eh....yeah in most cases. This is dependent upon the chip used and the whether 3:2 pulldown technology is used. Most mid to hi-end prog players will outperform built in TV doublers. However, there are a few outboard doublers/scalers (very expensive) that can match or better a prog DVD player.
Your fears are right. When you see a good prog signal into a prog ready tv next to interlaced, you'll want prog right away. It's like comparing 80's redbook CDs to todays SACDs.
