You can make it as default editor like this: in Eclipse go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> File Associations, select *. jsp and make web page editor as default editor.
Eclipse Enterprise Java and Web Developer Tools Enables Enterprise Java Bean, Java Enterprise Application, Fragments, and Connector, Java Web Application, JavaServer Faces (JSF), Java Server Pages (JSP), Java Servlet, Java Web Services, and Tag ...
To edit an HTML or JSP file, do one of the following: Double-click an HTML or JSP file. Right-click an HTML or JSP file, and select Open.
I followed the advice of Simon Gibbs in this answer and found it worked out fine - if you're in a hurry, the "Web Page Editor (optional)" package from the Eclipse update site does the trick.

As well as Amateras you could try Web Tools Project or Aptana. Although they will both give you way more than just a jsp editor.
Edit 2010/10/26 (comment from Simon Gibbs):
The Web Tools Project JSP editor is in the "Web Page Editor (Optional)" project.
Edit 2016/08/16 (extended comment from Dan Carter):
From Kepler (Eclipse 4.3.x) on, this is called "JSF Tools - Web Page Editor".
