I purchased Ultradev with the same hope in mind (that it would allow me to
stop switching between applications). That hope died. One thing that I was
most disappointed about was Ultradev's inability to connect with remote
databases for truely "live development". I must say it DOES do a good job of
allowing you to develop pages with a local database and see the changes to
the page as you design it. Other than that I see no real incentive to
upgrading to Ultradev.
PS. Im now switching between CFStudio and Ultradev for development :)

Unless you don't mind using Notepad, you'll want to keep Studio around.
Ultradev, whether you like it a lot or not, is no replacement for a text
editor. Ultradev doesn't provide CF-specific help, either; the help is
focused on Ultradev specifically.
