IDEA's done Android for years now. And now it's the basis of Google's Android Studio.
IntelliJ IDEA is the base for Android Studio, the new IDE for Android developers. Read all about it: http://blog.jetbrains.com/blog/2013/05/15/intellij-idea-is-t...
So, Android is supported in IDEA now? Nice. It is kind of annoying having two IDEs, one for Android development and one for everything else. Edit: Badly worded. What I meant to say are the Android Studio improvements and updates are now in Ultimate, which is nice.
It makes no sense for code to be in a single column on the left of the monitor while 2/3 of the right side is almost completely empty space. Instead of just allowing vertical scrolling, why not allow multiple columns and horizontal scrolling? This will result in the ability to see twice, in some cases three times as much code on screen!

Just trying the Scala plugin now. I really want to leave Eclipse. I wonder if it will show me implicit conversions and parameters, and if will handle hairy stuff like macros. And does it use the presentation compiler like ScalaIDE/Eclipse? If not I'll be surprised if can handle macros. So far, so good though. Need to import a bigger project as a test...
As far as I know, they use their own compiler for highlighting type errors in the editor etc. and SBT for the "actual" compilation. The presentation compiler didn't exist when they started Scala support, so they rolled their own solution.
Since there seem to be some IntelliJ folks here, I'd like to bring up my pet peeve: please take advantage of modern, gigantic _wide_ monitors. It makes no sense for code to be in a single column on the left of the monitor while 2/3 of the right side is almost completely empty space.

In addition to the existing panels you can split the editor window using Window->Editor Tabs->Split Horizontally.
