I am a bit of an editor freak.  I have finally decided on VIM.  It is a bit painful at first and like VI, it has modes where typing doesn't produce text.  But the leads to lots of key board short cuts and it has tab-completion as well.

Another good choice is Crimson Editor.  It is free and does syntax highlighting for many languages including python.  I have used it for matlab, LaTeX, html, python, and C++.  http://www.crimsoneditor.com/

Other people may have other suggestions.

Ipython can be made to run in color if you follow the Windows install instructions.  It will also suggest syntax when you hit the tab key.

I've just installed ipython. Seems okay, although I was getting to quite
like the look and feel of 'idle', particularly the way it hints at
syntax (like excel does) and also uses colours in the interpreter, and
links to its own editor.
