How about in the other direction?
I have a connecting flight to MUC and onwards to the US at 9am on a Sunday morning. If I want to be at TXL at 7am should probably take any sort of transport latest at 6.15am.
Do I just do the obvious thing and pre-book a cab or does the TXL bus or other public transport run at that time?

For your Sunday schedule, the bus that leaves Alexanderplatz at 06:31 arrives at Tegel at 06:58.

Best way?
Never been to Berlin before but looks like I'll try the TXL bus. If I use priceline to find a hotel, it seems like they divide selection zones between west & east of the downtown center. So if one travels to Alexanderplatz can he use the metro or bus service from there to travel to all the major "downtown" areas?

You can even use your ticket on regional trains run by the DB within the ticket's geographical validity.
