I've been wondering about this myself for a while.

Reviews that I've seen of the Olympus E300 make a big deal about its
8MP resolution in comparison with the 6MP of the *istD, DS etc and
the comparable Nikons and Canons.  But the reviews never mention the
smaller sensor size of the Olympus.

All else being equal, I would expect the larger sensor to produce
better quality enlargements, similar to the way that medium format
can produce better enlargements than 35 mm - but  I suppose in
digital all else is rarely equal!
