Has anyone seen http://vallettaventures.tumblr.com/ yet? It just popped up on MacInTouch this morning, and I've run the demo. It looks to have some cool features, although it's entirely missing all the tab-completion and macros that TextMate has completely addicted me to.
Any thoughts?

Yeah, the functionality of function lookup (i.e. right click and ask to look for the definition) of methods via Ruby Mine is the one thing that makes me think of moving from Vim – especially about being able to drill into the Rails/gem source at just a click, except that RM takes about 1gb of RAM to run and keeps me waiting around too much. If you are going for an IDE though, I would check out RM and get a lot of RAM, I cant see anyone topping that at this point…
I tried RubyMine but it was too sensitive for small issues. I am a hardcore dev and I want a but more freedom. 
I use TextMate.

Give CTRL-P a try while in insert mode after you've typed the first letter or two of the method. I don't use it, and just tested it and it doesn't seem to work in HAML files, but it worked in a controller when I typed "ski" and it found "skip_before_filter". And it picked up all the "has_***" methods in a model file...
Probably a way to get it to pick up all the view helpers too...
Don't know about jumping to the source, but someone's got a ctags setup for it, should work.
