1) Its always 480, not sure if i or p though.
2) true
3) S-video is crap now ignore it.
4) component will work with BD players, and will carry 720 and 1080, BUT you can't upscale most DVDs to 720 or 1080 via component cable-its not allowed.
5)
a) you are correct, but don't forget that digital TV can be both SD (usually upscaled) and HD.
b) correct

The cheap boxes are basically just D/A converters, you'll have to pay more to get HD signal
HTH,
