And, if you have a newer version of IntelliJ (7.x or 8.x) you need only point Intellij at the POM file when setting up a new project and it takes care of everything else. It's funny, but for someone who has a lot of projects and often has multiple copies of a trunk checked out, it is a huge time saver and probably one of the biggest reasons I can overcome all I don't like about Maven.

FWIW, IntelliJ has an open source licensing program such that you can get a free version for working on open source projects if you are a committer.

I don't know the details for eclipse, but I know that it can run maven
builds directly from inside eclipse and i think that there is equivalent
functionality as for the idea plugin.  For that, you just say "mvn
idea:idea" and maven builds all the necessary intellij style project files.
I think there is the same thing for eclipse.

This might help:

Not to my knowledge, but that would be marvelous. I ran the build in the checkout directory where I already had a .project and .classpath. Then I
started Eclipse and it has classpath problems.

Doesn't maven produce a usable eclipse project for you?

Build worked fine but I'm trying to cajole Eclipse into working with it.
The repository organization makes it difficult to work with. Maybe
there's
an Eclipse plugin?

In the case of the libs, like Hadoop, that aren't in the Maven repo, our
POM is setup to automatically install them (and deploy, too)

For new Maven users, I'd start with:
http://maven.apache.org/users/index.html

From there, I use http://maven.apache.org/plugins/index.html a lot and
also http://maven.apache.org/pom.html and also
http://maven.apache.org/guides/index.html
