Just started and love that little ship.
It's fast and sort of cool to fly around; Looks like BumbleBee to me.

Any chance CCP will ever let it mine ICE? Or maybe the Prospect?

There are no announced plans at this time.

Perhaps they are waiting until the anti-isboxer rules go into effect Jan 1. Otherwise there would be hordes of multibox ventures in ice belts.

At least with barges there is a natural wait time for skilling to it.

Personally I would like to see a new ship. Sister to the Prospect. Create a new ice mining laser and restrict it to this new ship (or let the prospect use it unbonused.). Let's call it the "Arctic" or something. Give it bonuses to ice mining but not ore so you have to chose which ship you use.

Make it different to the prospect in what it's special bonus is like instead of Cov Ops cloak it had Interdiction Nullifier.

From a balance point it should not do much since it takes longer to get to Prosepct then it does to a mining barge. Also, make it's yield less than any barge and no one would use it outside of it's intended role.
