I've been trying a few third party RTF editors, and none of them even come close to WordPad. Thanks for the link.

Atlantis, Jarte, and AbleWord may or may not be good alternatives to WordPad, depending on what you want or what you are looking for. It is my understanding that Jarte is a WordPad based app using the WordPad word processing engine.  

Personally, I use Ableword, and I like it, but someone else may not care for it. Your mileage will vary, as they say.
