The problem of *istD "softness" was disscussed here many times. Yes, you can have much sharper results using RAW format and PSCS converter. However I was talking about JPEGs straight from the camera. People who *istDs is mainly targeted to, will want just to shoot JPEGs and send them straitght to photo lab for prints without having to do any "complicated" photo-operations on the computer... Just a few will want to play with RAW and converters to achieve sharp results like you. And JPEGs straight from *istD are often quite soft and thus usually not suitable for good quality big enlargements without any USMing.
