This is sort of an apples and oranges question. The two standards have nothing to do with each other.
If you are really asking when will there be a pure hi data rate digital output from SACD equipment that's not a technical question. Its a legal copy right question. You see the manufacturers and record companies are shacking in their boots about your ability to copy a 24/96 quality digital image. A firewire connection would imply you could do that.
SO the answer is probably never.
