Feature:
It has all of the controllers that I need. Everything about it feels like high quality.
Quality:
Edirol (Roland) put some Roland keyboard quality into this controller. It's a step up. It is light but strong feeling.
Value:
I've owned the Novation X-Station and two M-Audio Keyboards. I prefer this Edirol over those. It beats the keyboard feel of the M-Audio by quantum leaps. It is more reliable than the Novation. The drivers are strong compared to the others. I'll keep this one for a long time. It's the first controller that I've really liked, even though the Novation was sexy. This is more practical.
Desirability:
It looks professional. I like the color and the lighting. Nice.
Sound:
This doesn't really apply...but the keyboard is really nice, and it allows me to play with the touch that I want...thusly...I'm able to get the sounds that I want. The touch-sensitivity of the keyboard is outstanding.
Support:
Haven't needed any.
Overall:
I expect to keep this for a few years...at least.

Feature:
The features are great, a lot of midi programming an flexibility with it, you have to know how to use it though and it can be complicated, the manual makes great explanations of it though
Quality:
The keys are amazing, I've had it for almost a year now and took it on tour on a soft case, nothing bad happened to it, not even to the sliders or knobs, the keys feel much much superior than the M-Audio oxygen (wich I also own) and the expression and low noise of them are simply fantastic, feels like a top of the line synth.
Value:
The value is great, specially if you compare it to the other choices like keystations, the e-mu xboard, etc. Remember you are buying a Roland controller.
Desirability:
The pictures don't make this keyboard justice, this looks much better in person.
Sound:
this thing makes no sound duh
Ease of Use:
It's really easy to use, just as your average midi keyboard controller, but, as I said before, if you want to change the mapping and channels etc. of it's midi talking, you need to go to the manual
Support:
haven't used it yet
Overall:
I love it and would definitely buy it again if I had to. I also saw Massive Attack use one of these at one of their shows, that speaks really well of it doesn't it?
