I can still supply them to anyone who wants one, although the AVR Dragon and now Studio 5 and 6 are making it less attractive.  I don't plan to buy more PCBs when the current batch runs out.  But, I do have a couple of industrial customers who order many at once and I'd like to be clear that there is still a supply.

Sorry about that, clearly I should have consulted the web page before saying things like that and hitting the send button: http://www.ecrostech.com/AtmelAvr/AvrIceCube/index.htm

Certainly got my money's worth out of mine. In one application which had a 50 mA supply my JTAGICE mkII drew too much power from the target but the ICE CUBE was perfectly happy. Much easier to use the ICE CUBE than to figure out how to get the mkII off my power supply.
