I personally love JBuilder but it is very pricey. By JBuilder X they really worked out most of the kinks. I tried Eclipse but everything was too much of a PITA to get working. Every time I try switching to another IDE I just keep going back to good 'ole JBuilder.
I've tried the latest JDeveloper and StudioCreator and the latest versions of both look promising but I end up giving up after wasting several hours trying to get everything setup the way I need it. So I'm sticking with JBuilder until the JSF-enabled IDE's mature a little more.
