The ICD2 doesn't sound like a good option in those cases where I might want to install the software on a client's PC temporarily. I could actually make use of a reliable USB based in-circuit programmer for the field work. I was hoping for a single tool but reliable ICSP programming via USB is my primary need in the field.
