Connecting a SB Touch into Oppo BDP-95?

Been looking over the BDP-95 manual, and it seems there is no way to get a digital signal from the Touch and into the Sabre DAC in the 95. Am I right? Do you know of any modder able to add a digital input?

I have been thinking of getting an external DAC to connect my Rotel player as transport as well as my Touch, but I'm thinking the BDP95 has a good DAC with excellent mod potential, with SACD and Blu-Ray as icing on that cake. If I could connect the Touch to it I think the 95 would be it.

If you follow the link I provided above to the Oppo review you will be able to read more.

Powerful connectivity options: The BDP-
95 is equipped with a hard-wired RJ-45-type
Ethernet port, a wireless-n Wi-Fi adapter, an
eSATA port, and two USB 2.0 ports. As shipped,
the player can play music, video, or photo files
from USB or eSATA drives, and can also stream
certain types of content from the Internet. It
cannot, however, function as a USB DAC,
although it unofficially provides DNLA Server-like
“Experimental Functions” that potentially allow
the BDP-95 to play digital audio files stored on
PCs attached to your home network.

Yea, it does say experimental. So it could just need a firmware upgrade when available to address the situation. I have spoken to Oppo on the phone and they are very helpful in a small company sort of way.
