Does anyone has any idea whether a scale-down version (WITHOUT the DAC)

SlimDevices does not comment on future products.
I don't work for them, I'm just a customer
But I don't understand what you are asking for. The Transporter as a
unit is very cool. Without the DAC, it would be a lot like having two
SqueezeBox 3s, but lots more expensive.
Removing $100 worth of parts from an electronic product does not reduce
its price by $100. It may, in fact, increase costs because now there are
two products to make and keep straight, and two means some folks will
get the wrong one, needing replacements, etc.
I don't see much attraction in a SqueezeBox or Transporter without the DAC.
I could almost see one without the digital outputs, but they can't add
much
to the cost of manufacture.
I would expect that the SqueezeBox 7 will have some of the good design
stuff that is in the Transporter today. Maybe even the SqueezeBox 6
