ipod and dac?


Has anyone used an ipod or similar device with a high quality d/a converter? I love the idea of the convenience with the ipod and duplicating my cd collection, but I hate the idea of compressing the data and losing the sonic quality. I welcome any ideas on this topic as well as ideas relating to how to make the ipod and the like a high quality digital source. (Can you modify the recording rate to make the music quality better?) thx

It does appear that the iriver models have digital in and out, which should make them work with a dac. I would suppose that would ameliorate the compression problem to a degree. does anyone have experience with the iriver models?

I do understand that an ipod and the like is not for real high fidelity, but it would allow me to duplicate my home music collection for the office, and the system is good enough that the compression will matter somewhat. thx
