Google is funding work to ensure the Windows version of Adobe Systems' Photoshop and other Creative Suite software can run on Linux computers. "We hired CodeWeavers to make Photoshop CS and CS2 work better under Wine," Dan Kegel, of Google's software engineering team and the Wine 1.0 release manager, said on Google's open-source blog. "Photoshop is one of those applications that desktop Linux users are constantly clamoring for, and we're happy to say they work pretty well now... We look forward to further improvements in this area."

I agree with the sharpening thing. In fact, I don't touch the sharpening, because it always makes photos look dodgier somehow..
However, whilst most your point and click cameras don't support raw (canon's at least because they wont to upsell people to a DSLR), the Panasonic Lumix LX2 http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/shop/Cameras-Camcord... does.
I have one myself as I see so many dorks with massive DSLR's around their necks at party's, and you know that they aren't really the party type instantly. Its 10.2 megapixels (widescreen) too (so 7mpixel 4:3). It fits in my pocket perfectly, so its for your normal crowd who need to be flexible (even many photographer buffs own both a SLR and a normal camera).
But either way, you are right mostly, but I'm personally hoping the Lumix's take off, because they are a great camera, and whilst the IXUS's are undoubtably the most popular camera at the moment, they only store stuff as jpg, making them mostly useless. And Canon's older models used to support RAW too. But now, they are just using it as an excuse to upsell..
Anyway, where were we? ^_^
