You've probably figured out that Tascam and Zoom often have competing products--e.g. Tascam Model 24 and Zoom Livetrak L-20.
Zoom recently released a new, state of the art portastudio called the R20.

There is a pinned thread asking if Tascam will ever release a new portastudio. The odds just went way up! I'm hoping it will happen next year.
As for the R20, the features look pretty impressive, especially the touch screen. But no mastering effects, which gives Tascam an opportunity to one-up them.
