Description
Construction of the IceCube neutrino telescope is now more than 25% complete, with 22 strings in the ice and 26 IceTop air shower stations deployed on the surface. We present initial results from data taken with 9 strings in 2006, as well as results from the AMANDA array, which has been incorporated into IceCube. We also discuss the scientific potential of IceCube as it amasses 1 km^3 yr of data over the next few years.
