When I was leveling 70-80, I was Holy and had hardly any mana issues. However, once your mana improves, your regen will too. Also, Abolish disease > Cure. It's a 12 second Cure for similar mana. I'd recommend running UK and Nexus, and just hope for drops.
More intellect on your gear, use PW:S on the tank once Weakened Soul wears off, and it should be okay.

You shouldn't have any mana problems with that gear and spec (I have very
similiar
stats), unless some clothie decides that he is better tank than your brother... with good geared/specced tank you can keep him up with Renew and Shield alone (Penance in case some bigger spike). As for group healing, you didn't wrote what are you casting in such situations.
PoM/Renew on aoe, Renew on tapping locks, Inner Focused PoH if you need big party healing etc. Holy Nova might be useful on mini-adds in AN and OK boss fights so I wouldn't just throw it out (just don't use it as healing spell unless you are topping few people missing <1k hp).
As for dispells - well, I'm using Healbot so 90% of healing goes through clicking window instead of tapping keybinds, I can't really say I have problems with too little space on keyboard :P.

IF PoH is something I never thought of doing - normally I use IF for GH when I'm low on mana. I typically only use Holy Nova when the group is melee heavy.
IF PoH is great because it gives you a mana free group heal with a crit rate increased by 25% on multiple targets, which procs multiple Divine Aegis bubbles.
As for Holy Nova, save it for farming chilled meat, or killing multiple non-elite adds that are on you. I'd rather throw out PW:Shield to all group members (glyphed it does a heal), than heal with Holy Nova.

When I start throwing out multiple renews and multiple PW:S's is when I start hitting the mana problems.
There shouldn't be any encounters on your level that require you to Shield multiple targets. Are you sure dps isn't stealing aggro from tank?
Actually... the only thing I have in my head are mines and second phase of last boss in UK. For mines - your tank needs to move out if you have melee heavy party (it's easier than hoping for 3 "lol I haz plate" guys to listen and move out of area). For boss, myself I panic sometimes on him (so many bars dropping on shout), but PoH should work well.
Make sure that in melee heavy group to stand back so that PoM can jump between them and don't stop on you (you can still SW:Death it away, but it's rather weak solution). If your whole group needs healing, use PoH.
Holy Nova main use is to kill off small mobs sitting on you (first boss AN, first boss on OK, visions on last boss of OK etc), the fact that it also heals is just a side benefit. With that heirloom trinket you won't lose mana on doing this.
And don't be afraid of using CDs, if you see your tank overpulled (anyone else loves trash after second boss in OK?), boss is going into enrage state or something bad is going to happen, (Penance to top off if needed ->) Shield -> Pain Suppression him.

Holy Nova is evil, get it off your bar.
Its return is abysmal.
but Holy Nova? Ewww
Maybe for clearing off zombies in COS (most other non-elite trash - like a lot in UK are much stronger than the zombies in COS which is the only time I would have HN on my bar)
Holy Nova is not a bad spell. I don't know why you're treating it as such. It's very good in fights like XT-002, allowing you to easily heal your group, or just about any fight where you know you're going to be grouped up with your group. It's also spammable, so that gives it a good edge.

I like Holy Nova when fighting Heroic Loken. Just spam it with Power Infusion on and the fights a cinch.
