FWIW:

I know of a developer that wasted at least several days due to oddities and
strangeness while trying to use an ICE-2000. One advantage of the ICD is
that you are driving your circuit with the actual chip that will be used in
production, mounted directly on your board. No funny behaviour (note the
British spelling!) caused by hardware differences (thresholds, drive
capability, capacitance, etc, etc).
