    I have only owned my PIP for about two weeks. My wife and I love it. I have been reading lots of threads where the acronym "ICE" is used constantly. Being a newbie to the plug-in, I can't seem to find a detailed explanation for this term. Could someone please enlighten me? (I have searched the forum, but still cannot find a definition). Thanks! :)
