I personally had this "mourning" phase when I switched purely to digital and 
actually stooped shooting for a while.  I had just gotten the *istD and wasn't 
making prints.  I had stopped using my MZ-S (which I really enjoyed) and didn't 
adjust my mental workflow to include a good way to view my pictures on a 
regular basis.   The big difference now is that I keep my favorite images on my 
ipod touch and my laptop and show them to folks and look at them myself.  I 
know this sounds silly, but it's easy to get buried under thousands of images 
that you have no real practical way to access.

That's exactly what I feel when I try raw and open it on whatever editing 
program (that tend to be very slow to operate BTW). I can change so many things 
that I get paralyzed.

I assume that within some time I would discover the workflow that best suits my 
needs. Unfortunately, having two small kids I can hardly keep up with taking 
some pictures from time to time...

Jaume
