Hi, Not sure what you mean by Netbeans will catch up to Eclipse but Netbeans has many, many more features than Eclipse and it seems these features are being slowly adopted by Eclipse.
The only feature I can see Eclipse has is that it uses SWT. I personally don't see the need for SWT as well written Swing applications run perfectly and fast on all java platforms. Netbeans has had tomcat in-built as its default server for years and years now, and is great for tomcat projects. That's my experience anyway.

Nobody here will pay myeclipseIde, then, I found WST, that is the natural implementation of eclipse for Enterprise applications (JSP, XML, Webservices, ejb, etc). Sysdeo is good, but WST is much better. Netbeans 5 is great! I think that in 2 years will be almost like eclipse. (their aproach is not very good, Swing is still slow and you know the difference) Regards.

Netbeans has built in support for Tomcat straight out of install without adding any extra plugins, and you can install other modules for JBoss and Sun Application Server, and there may be others. You might give it a try. I haven't used Eclipse much myself.
