Yes I have and they're truly lovely. 

I do occassionally make digital color prints on my Epson 3000
using MIS Archival Inks. And I work with digital image files
professionally every day, sending them to Llamda and Pegasus
Printers and PrePress Service Bureaus. 

Digital print technology IS HERE and SPARKLES. And if I can ever
get up the $500 + I intend to invest in Jon Cone's Piezography
System. It's on my 2001 goals/wish list.

But I also love conventional prints and printing. They have their
own unique qualities. 

I'm currently working on a project, using a 35mm Rodenstock
Eurygon, on an 8x10 Deardorf, with the bellows at 7 inches,
taking about 3" up to 10" and making RC Prints to 30x40. Can I
get 30x40 Piezographic prints? If so - at what cost? Will the
client pay that amount? And - When these babies come up up in the
tray - it's a kick.

:-)
