On your interesting idea...

hdmi to dvi ...no problem...that's just an adapter.
dvi to vga ...you need a dac (digital to analog converter)...
http://www.national-tech.com/catalog/dvitovgaconverters.htmvga to component... yes, that exists... someone here at pinoydvd just sold one to someone looking for it

however on hdmi directly to vga or component...
according to this it's illegal, hence it shouldn't exist, just like
region-free players
http://www.highdefforum.com/archive/index.php/t-8146.htmlaccording to this ... it does exist
http://www.av-sales.co.uk/HDMI-VGA-CONVERTER-139-.htmSo, your original question... yes, it will likely work, but the cost is another thing... $$$
They think of everything these days.
