Can there be such a thing as a portable fiber optic cable for lineout?

My friend brought that up as I showed him my ALO Jumbo Cryo.

Possible? If so, why not yet? Costs?

TIA.

well the ipod doesn't have an optical out (or any digital output for that matter)... so there wouldn't be much of a way to get an optical lineout cable...

the iriver used to have an optical output, and i'm sure there are others out there.

How about this, this seems like it is very portable.

Maybe you guys misunderstood me. Here, I'll try to explain it better:

Think an ALO line-out. Now replace whatever cable is between the dock and the male output with fiber optics.

Possible?
