I used to use netbeans for a while and really liked it.
But now, I wan't to expand my toolbox with Python, and Netbeans dropped support for Django, also Python support seems to suck in NB 7.0.
So I am looking for recommendations on IDE or Text Editor for Windows with support:
I know Aptana 3 can do this, is there anything else?
I don't know Vim a lot, but would that be an option?

NetBeans - If you are using 64-bit Windows do not hurry to install updates on 7.0+. 6.* is working fine.
You have ftp and you can set to upload on run of the project or on each save. You can download Python plugin by adding this url. It is not the best but it worked for me.
It is stable engough and powerful, since the eclipses are very buggy to me.
Aptana is currently the eclipse for web projects, and the people who are creating it are also the creators of pydev, so it would be my second choise.
Visual Studio's plugin VC.Php (Paid) is also powerful, because Visual Studio environment is good, but the plugin is buggy, too and sometimes seems to be updated with dalay of new suff, as whole it would be my 3rd choise.

Eclipse and Visual Studio have plugins for just about everything. Eclipse is free, I think for Visual Studio though you'd have to get the professional version to run plugins...

http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/ would be my first choice. JetBrains does a great job with making the editor valuable to you for more than just text entry. The different IDEs JetBrains offers are all basically the same even if they are configured for a slightly different language set.
Eclipse is an option, it has plugins for everything. I've never been much of a fan of Eclipse though. It's really plugable but not a great IDE compared to some of the other options.

Well Aptana is built upon eclipse, so you could just use the basic eclipse with all your necessary add ons.
Obviously you'll need Pydev for the python stuff and that has Django integration.
For some reason though I actually prefer netbeans for my php ide.
Tbh just try out a few and see which one you like best.
