I'm not sure if the assumptions are sound. The S3 is extremely
cheap. For example, my personal use of it comes to less than a
dollar a month.

I don't know (see below).

Yes.

Two things you might want to keep in mind:

 - The tabled's implementation is not the canon, S3 is. If the S3fox
   fails with tabled but works with S3, it's likely a bug in tabled.
   I fixed up quite a bunch of them when I started running Boto.

   For example, parsing of arbitrary ACPs is absent and only canned
   forms are supported for now.

 - You're likely to run into bugs with stability, or something not
   starting... I just barely have it all working. Don't trust tabled
   with your backups just yet (I don't). Maybe in a few months.

I hope that tabled's setup.txt should be sufficient. CLD does not
really need any setup, just an empty directory. Ask away if you
have a specific question, no matter how detailed.
