Canon 40D and Raw under CS2


I have CS2. I am thinking of getting the
new Canon 40D which has 14 bit color in its
raw files.

The CS2 version of raw converter will not handle
the 40D files natively, so I would have to go
the Raw -> DNG -> Adobe Raw.

My question is will this workflow preserve the
14 bit per channel color at the time of raw
conversion, or will I have to upgrade to CS3
to be able to take full advantage of the 14
bits?

Thanks in advance,
