New Studio Hardware

Kevin, no one here knows anything about it.  But you are right, TASCAM is now partners (through Gibson) with Cake and expect a lot of integration simply because they will use each other's platforms, so any glitches should get corrected quickly (same as w/ Roland when they owned Cake).
 
On the other hand, it really does your sales no favors if you lock your hardware to software (except AVID).  I don't expect TASCAM to make a SONAR-specific hardware controller.  I do expect they will make a replacement for their interface/board that works well w/ SONAR and is likely to be well tested.
 
What I'd like to see is a TASCAM DSD recorder/playback integrated w/ SONAR at DSD rates to splice together tracks for light editing.
