Put cranberries in small saucepan over medium low heat. Add water and simmer for 3 minutes. Drain; set cranberries and liquid aside.
In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat. Season pork with salt and pepper and put in a skillet. Saute on both sides until browned, about 3 minute per side. Put on platter and keep warm. Add chopped shallot to skillet and saute. Pour in vinegar (and 1/2 cup port wine if desired.) Bring to a boil, stirring to scrape up brown bits. Boil 3 to 5 minutes.
