I don't think anyone has claimed they can? The Atom is a toy CPU so the exercise is academic, but I wouldn't say it's impossible (especially if I take your words literally and am allowed to use CAVLC instead of CABAC, etc).

I don't think anyone has claimed this either. 720p is perfectly possible though, I've done it myself.
