Well, I am able to program and then run the test program perfectly with 
the ICD2 at 3.5V; I just can't put it into
debug mode.

You might be right, though, I just got through with a major F88 project 
at 5V using the ICD2, no problems.
BUT- if the ICD2 doesn't work at 3.5V, I have a serious problem, as 
everything in MY forseeable future
is 3.5V.

I'm going ahead, hobbling along using the ICD2 as a programmer, and 
putting my own debug tools inside
(Morse code beeper, RS232 serial port dump, etc). Sure makes things alot 
harder.

Where was that note? On Microchip help forum?
