Default Trying to work with RAW for the first time...HELP!!!

I have a Canon 50D and tonight I thought I would take the leap and shoot in RAW. I have Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended and when I downloaded my images into a file in the Bridge my CR2 files dont show any images in the thumbnail versions and when I double click one of those files to try and work with it I get a warning stating that it "Could not complete my request because it is not a valid Photoshop document" How do I open my RAW files so I can play with them? Obviously there is something I am missing.

Thank you!

Never mind, I guess my software just needed to be updated! Working now!

hmmm....can photoshop edit RAW? I always used JPEG simply because I know my way around PS and didn't like being restricted to the Canon editing software. (I ended up reimporting the Jpeg's into PS anyways >.<)

If there's a setting i'm missing, would you mind telling me? I'm running PS CS4 =)

thanks!
