How is it for debugging speed? (Single stepping, updating watch windows,
displaying registers, etc.) That's always been my biggest gripe with
MPLAB/ICD2. Of the dozen or so inexpensive serial debuggers I have for
various MPUs, that combination is the slowest and most cumbersome. I rarely
use it because of that.

I would think it should be much faster as well since the same serial data
transfer mechanism is used to both program and debug.

It looks like the ICD3 is a step in the right direction.
