I feel your pain. Eclipse is a lovely IDE, and its Java tooling is
wonderful. (I hear that IDEA is even better, but I've never managed to
get into it.)

Unfortunately, the only C# plugin I've seen for Eclipse is pretty lousy
- it's basically syntax colouring and a call out to csc (in a nasty
console window).

The good news is that VS 2005 is significantly better than VS.NET 2003
- Microsoft have joined the 21st century and discovered refactoring :)
I still miss things like "Organise Imports" and the ability to hold
down Ctrl to turn just about anything into a navigational hyperlink
though...
