2a. I doubt this is feasible, either, but a custom DAP based on the Rockbox firmware and optimized for audio quality would be ultra-sweet. I have no idea how big the market is for an audiophile DAP, but I'd sure as heck buy one, and I bet Stereophile would be interested. (And note that something Micro-sized would actually be highly portable in this context, as it'd be a single unit to carry...)

This is my dream:
A transportable DAP using several 2.5 inches hard drives (RAID; 600 giga bytes), digital output (toslink or coax), battery powered, USB host, plays ALAC and FLAC lossless files, runs by an open source software (Rockbox or other), the battery can be recharged by the AC power supply, the battery and hard drives can easily be replaced by the user, 10 inches LCD display, a good DAC inside, etc.
