I have over-the-air TV, and last time I checked, it seemed pretty much all channels were broadcasting only 720p.  I don't think I've seen a channel where I am brodcasting 1080, but it has been a while since I checked a channel's info on my TV.  I believe there's a resolution limit to what they can broadcast digitally over the air, but I don't remember what that limit is.
