It seems a shame to have VS2003, and VS2005 (Team Edition for Developers no less) installed on the laptop provided by my kind clients, and to have to use notepad to write a Powershell script. (Note: not a Cmdlet, a Script)
Is there a better way?

Well, you could use Visual Studio's plaintext editor, which beats Notepad anyway.

Look in the sandbox, somebody from MS posted project templates for Powershell.

Yup, already seen those - but they're for creating CmdLets, not scripts. (Difference being that CmdLets are written in other .NET languages, not powershell itself - they're just usable from powershell.)
Sigh... Here I was hoping for intelisense and all that jazz. -

You might want to take a look at powerGUI or powershell plus. Haven't reasearched them yet but they were in my bookmarks for powershell.

There is also http://www.powershellanalyzer.com/, like above I have yet to use it, but it's on my list of things to check out when I get time.
