Language without proper IDE(Eclipse) support isn't worth much for me.

ps. i'm not cool enough to use notepad, vim etc.

It has IntelliJ support.

Just wanted to point that out, because you mentioned Notepad and VI. If you don't like IntelliJ, that's a whole other story.

This language is from the people who work on intellij, so it should have good IDE support in intellij. I haven't tried it myself though.

Jetbrains frustrations with implementing Scala support in IntelliJ were at least part of the motivation for Kotlin.

Since they've designed it with tool support in mind from the beginning I expect Kotlin to seriously outstrip the other JVM languages in IDE integration.
