Android - Substantial development in Scala

Has anyone had success developing a substantial Android app in Scala? Is it a viable option yet? Are there any mature development environments? Given the state of the Scala Eclipse plug-in, it looks as if there is no good IDE support at all other than possibly IntelliJ Ultimate.

A few people have posted tutorials describing how to fudge Eclipse ADT to sort-of support Scala, and how to slim the Scala libraries using Proguard, but beyond that there has been worryingly little discussion about this topic.

Update 2011-08-01: An interesting article on Android+Scala from the developers behind the Bump app:http://devblog.bu.mp/how-we-use-scala-in-bump-for-android

Android - What is the best IDE to develop apps in?

I am about to start developing an android app and need to get an IDE. Eclipse and the android eclipse plugin appears to be the natural choice. However I am familiar with intelliJ and re-sharper so I would prefer use intelliJ.

Has anyone used http://code.google.com/p/idea-android? Is this any good?

Should I just bite the bullet and learn Eclipse?
