Component can do 1080p but it's not something that all device manufacturers seem to support, so sometimes the device can send 1080p on component but the TV can't accept it, or vice versa.

Unless your TV is 1080p and you are taking advantage of the newest HD audio codecs with a new receiver, going component won't be a problem at all.

Component actually has some advantages over HDMI as well:

Maybe I was thinking of audio through HDMI being uncompressed? I know there was some mention of zero compression when I use HDMI for my PS3 and send it to an AV receiver. Hmmm.
