For Sevilla I'd suggest you take a look at Explore Seville (http://www.exploreseville.com/) and Visitcostadelsol.com for Malaga.

The train works fine between Sevilla and Malaga and then onto Madrid.

Sounds fine, of course you know that you have to reserve ahead the visit to the Alhambra in Granada. A good idea also is to rent ear plug system at the begining of the visit. There is a lot of different buildings to see, gardens, etc and it is very useful.

Looks good to me. I might even add a daytrip from Madrid to either Segovia or Toledo.

ssad, First of all, never be so sad :) Life's too short :)

For hotels etc, download Maribel's guides. They are at: http://maribelsguides.com/.

I'd recommend a daytrip from Madrid to Segovia.

It is a lot of country to cover in a short time. If it were me I would eliminate Malaga and spend longer in Seville. Malaga is mostly unattractive high rises. Re the day trips - I guess this is a matter of whether you want to see the place you are staying in or just use it as a base for day trips elsewhere.
