That's not true - 1080p makes a difference depending on your viewing distance and screen size.

On a 22" LCD monitor at 2-3 ft with a resolution of 1920x1200 1080p makes a noticeable difference over 720p.

On a 50" plasma at 20ft 1080p makes little to no difference over 720p.

Without viewing distance taken into account, generalizations are meaningless.
