I had a similar problem and went to google and found a few raw files with which I could experiment.

one of the members on this site had a link to some very nice raw images:

not sure if the images are still available, and if they are be sure to thank them...

You can also load JPEGS/Tiffs into Camera Raw in CS3. Use the Photoshop OPEN dialog box, select a JPEG then look for the Fromat popup and from there choose to open with Camera Raw.

Yeah, or you can use Open As... and click "Camera Raw" from the drop down menu near the bottom. So you can use JPEGs as well, it's not only for RAW files. Also I believe in Bridge you can set JPEGs to open in ACR by default as well.

Or you can use the dng converter that comes with acr and make your jpegs dng files.
