Evil mode for Emacs is the only "vim mode" that I have seen that is even slightly acceptable to me. Viper was fairly shit, and everything else that I have seen and tried was just awful. The most you can typically expect is some loose emulation of a divide between insert and normal mode, and maybe half of the normal mode commands implemented, most incorrectly (not taking counts or not combining with movement keys correctly are the most frequent oversights).
I do mobile development. About 95% of my time is spent in Vim, the other 5% in eclipse for the few things that it actually makes my life easier for. If eclipse were actually more useful to me, that percentage would probably drop as it would cause me to bother setting up Eclim (I can't be arsed to right now, since that 5% is so low.)
