Several months ago there was quite a buzz over this topic in various web designer blog sites. (I know, I should link, but don't have links now). Basically, one side says that there can only be one h1 tag because a web page is a heirarchical document. There can be only one root. However, the other side felt that hx tags represent 'importance', and so if you have two equally important top level headings, it would be ok to have two h1 tags.
There is nothing to stop you from doing either. Check out the w3c spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/global.html#edef-H1). They seem to say that either approach is acceptable.
