I have tried a few and I mainly stick with Eclipse IDE + PyDev for large projects, simply because I develop stuff in other languages and it is X-platform. For small stuff, I might just use Notepad++ (Windows), Kate/(KDE)/ vim, or ipython for rapid python prototyping :) My only dislike about vim is how spacing is interpretted going from editor to editor, so I dont use it very often for python :/
