Well since you didn't take my word for it, even though I've used it in 1080p first hand..

Here is a tech article on it doing 1080p
And the wiki that mentions it.
Oh, and an EnGadget article that talks about it.
It's easy information to find, here's a google search for you that's full of links saying it supports it.
Lastly, from another place:
Both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray are stored on disc in 1080p format. The initial
HD-DVD player from Toshiba will only support output at 720p or 1080i
resolutions (not all of the Blu-Ray players will support 1080p output
either, just the most expensive ones like the $1800 Pioneer). 1080p
output will most likely be activated on HD-DVD for the second generation
of players, which will coincide with a time when there is more than a
handful of 1080p displays on the market that can accept such a signal
anyway.
The internet rumors that HD-DVD was permanently limited to 1080i are
pure FUD from Blu-Ray supporters trying to stymie the HD-DVD launch.

can someone post a link that shows HD-DVD can do 1080P. I can't seem to find anything supporting that.
