1080p theoretically requires double the bandwidth of 720p. Since that's not entirely plausible to stream online, and streaming is the "big thing" with Apple TV, they decided to keep costs down by not supporting it at all. At least that's my guess.

It's not a huge deal for me because the only thing I watch in 1080p are blu-rays.
