As far as I know, 1080P will not be a viable consumer standard for quite some time. I believe that some shows are "filmed" using HD cams in 1080P and then broadcast to the consumer in either 1080i or 720P. This give the flexibility to use any number of formats. The reason why 1080P will not be used now has to do with increased bandwidth to use it.
Bottom line, don't wait for it. You could be waiting for a really loooong time.
Not sure of the plans for HD-DVDs.
