The Wii does 720p if you have a component cable. I'd try it.
Are you sure? I did order the component cable from monoprice, but I thought it was still a 480p output.
If you want to get technical, it's supposedly scaled anamorphic 480p.
Even so, my tv pops up an info-window when I select a source and it's interpreting the component input from my Wii as a 720p signal.
In addition to being widescreen, the image is vastly superior in quality to the composite display (which may simply be due to the component cables), so I think it's well worth the $15 bucks for the component adapter.
...Especially if you're playing Mario Kart.
