Question HD CRT....can it be true??

I have a Panasonic TX32PD50 and I was wondering does anybody know (or have an opinion) if I got a cheap Blu-ray player (I have a Samsung BD-P1500 in mind) connected it via the component out to my Panny and set the output to 720p...would I get a HD picture? This set upscales off-air and DVD to 833 lines at 75Hz Progressive, so in theory it should work! Panasonic can't tell me (although they are interested to know the answer) and neither can Lakes Audio in Aylesbury from whome I brought it 4 years ago (and again they are interested in the answer). I read an old thread about an X-Box360 used with this set giving an HD picture with interest but I don't know if it Was that outputting at 720p?

I'd really appreciate an answer as I am loathed to throw this wonderful CRT TV away. If anybody out there in AV land has an old Panny and a Blu-ray have you/can you try it out and let me know!:

Cheers.

Garry
