since this is the best audio player on the planet i was looking for some supposrt for my portable rio karma. there is already software that enables streaming and other neat features, but i was looking for a free solution through foobar.

is this possible, or am i just dreaming (they have free java software that connects)

Only java-based tools that support karma are available at the moment, and I would expect integrating this with fb2k to be a huge pita.

Karmalib aims at making a c++ library. Your best bet is probably to follow their progress and suggest making a fb2k component again when (and if) they actually release it.
