Generally speaking, we are in a technological overlap. That period of time, which your research has revealed, when there are good reasons to hang on to film and good reasons to jump to digital. At least we have arrived at the point where it is merely a matter of money and not technical capability, this is a good thing. This means that we are nearing the end of the overlap.
Personally, I have decided that the digital I buy will be at least a 5-6 mega pixel SLR. However the price I am willing to pay is probably 18-24 months out.
It can be very aggravating dealing with film but I never really thought about it until I understood the benefits of digital. So, what I did was take that little gaget they used in the movie "Men in Black" (now available at Radio Shack, don't go less than 5-6 mega pixels) and wiped my memory clean of all digital references with an 18 month recall option.
