Can component video send 720p or only dvi/hdmi?


I am not a videophile if you couldn't tell from my question but am asking my audiogon friends for a little help. I am helping my dad with a high definition television/dvd set up. My question is when connecting a dvd player that sends 720p to a high definition television can that signal be sent via component video? I know it can be sent via dvi or hdmi connection. I would appreciate if the video experts could help me out. I am leaning the way of the samsung 941 that will supposedly be out next month. Any recommendations are always appreciated. Thanks guys.

If the player can do both is there an advantage to using one over the other. I am considering acoustic zen silver byte component video or possibly one of the higher end audioquest component cables. I don't know if the new Samsung 941 passes the 720p/1080i, if anyone knows please share the info. Thanks guys. I really appreciate it.
