Having used CFEclipse extensively not to mention CF Studio/Homesite and some DW, I have to say that CF Builder is well worth the investment, so much so that it's not even close. Having FB Standard bundled is nice but not essential to making Builder worth the money. Now that I'm acclimated to Builder, I'd never go back. The incorporation of a lot of Aptana features makes it a virtual one-stop-shop for all my CF/HTML needs. The product is on a good track and I'm looking forward to the next iteration.
