I'm in the same boat too. W7 is my favorite OS so far and I do miss the shell. I adapted myself to use Cygwin to fill the gap though. Windows powershell, while a good effort, is not exactly what I'm looking for. The goodness of a shell extends beyond the raw commands. cygwin + rxvt + zsh is my current shell setup and it works pretty well for me.
