720p is only 1280x720. That's not even 1MP. Samsung I9000 Galaxy S mobile phone can record and play back 720p H264 videos with a 5MP camera. (and nearly the same CPU but at 1GHz) Samsung OmniaHD can record 720p HD videos using identical OMAP3430 as N900. It's all in the drivers and software limitation for the N900 currently imho.

Even the one of highest end Canon 1080i Full HD video camera has a sensor which does less than 2MP. (Canon XH A1S)
