Is it true that a component connection will only produce a 1080i output vs HDMI producing 1080p?

HDMI is capable of carrying a 1080p signal. That is assuming of course that you have a 1080p source. Right now, the only 1080p source component is a Blu-Ray player. For everything else, there is no audio or visual advantage to HDMI. It just offers simpler hookup.
