Just for my 2 cents. I prefer Eclipse 3.x with myEclipse plugin. It's very
reasonable and they charge on a yearly basis. I would go through the Eclipse
tutorials. If you want to use generics or enum, then you will need to get
the 3.1 release. As of right now, it hasn't been released yet, but you can
get a pretty stable 3.1M7 which is their final release candidate.
