Developing Android with other IDE rather than Eclipse

Hi all I want to start Android development but I just don't like Eclipse. (Yes, I am picky. lol) Is there any other good IDE rather than Eclipse that really WORKS with Android SDK? (QT maybe?)

Thanks in advance

Ignacio

UPDATE: I am on Mac OS X. Is there any plugin for Xcode that makes the trick of linking Android SDK with it?

+2 A:

As for IDEs, Netbeans is pretty good for Android development.
Basically, every text editor or IDE can be used with some amount of tweaking. See this reference as a way to get started: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/other-ide.html

Nope, my personal experience shows that Netbeans Android plugin (aka nbandroid) is too buggy. I'm using Intellij IDEA - which is fantastic

Eclipse is just a terrible, buggy pile of garbage from top to bottom, and most people have told me NetBeans doesn't have a mature Android implementation.

How difficult is it to setup Intellij IDEA for Android development, and what should I expect versus developing for Android on Eclipse?

-1. This answer doesn't provide any insight at all. In fact, it's another question! Besides, Eclipse isn't that bad once you get used to it. Sure, you may not want to compare it to a professional package like Visual Studio, but I've gotten used to it, even though I use VS in real life.
