Nice, I hadn't noticed that when I last looked at their literature.  Not a 
feature you need often but when you do there isn't anything that will 
substitute for it.

With that an the ETM you appear to have almost a full ICE capability. I 
think the biggest thing left is probably the quantity of breakpoint and 
watchpoints.   And if other vendors follow Seggers example then that will 
just leave the quantity of data watchpoints which is often low in a 'real' 
ice anyway.

My thanks to you and Rob for correcting my oversight.
