Q: 

What is the best Java IDE?

I'm new to java development and have started out using eclipse, what other tools should I be looking at?

I'm coming from TextMate and Vim so its a big change, any advice?

+1  A: 

I don't know if it's the best, but my personal favorite is Eclipse.

+2  A: 

If you're coming from Vim, you can ease the change by using the VI capabilities available for common IDEs - both Eclipse and Intellij have VI plugins (here and here).
