I was a vim diehard for years (and still am). However I finally succumbed to the lure of Eclipse, and I wouldn’t look back (I’ve had to make a sideways move to Intellij, but that’s another story).
Having said that, I run Eclipse with this Vim plugin (note: others available), and that works very well. I keep the keyboard-based power of Vi/Vim, and get the Java-aware capabilities of Eclipse. I would strongly recommend this approach. Despite Vim’s multitude of plugins, nothing comes close to the language-aware refactoring and coding capabilities of the modern IDE.
Update: 20/01/2015. This plugin has moved to http://www.viplugin.com
