well, considering that the current demand for ice products is about nothing, and the price people are willing to pay is quite low... from a purely isk standpoint right now, no.
Possible massive future growth in the demand of the ice products may make it a very good source of income.
However, do not simply look at ice in consideration for training up to this milestone - look at the ores as well. The strip miners can mine massive ammounts of minerals. Granted, the small and middle barge are not as good as a mining apoc (right now), but a large one (lets face it, if you are going to train up to a barge you should go all the way to lvl 5 with it) will beat it in volume and with the newer t2 strip miners and crystal mining laszers these things will be the king in ore mining.
At least in empire, they have armor as strong as paper and will not last long in any combat, so use in less secure placces will require support.

There are more than 1 types of ice.
The answer to your question can be found by checking the items database on this website.
From the menu on left of screen, click 'Backstory' under 'Eve Online' the database is listed there.

Yes and no...the base price for common Ice Ore's such as Blue Ice and White Glaze is as little as ISK 151,000.00 (lower than Hemorphite) but if you can get your hands on some Glare Crust or Dark Glitter (no i'm serious)then your in business as these start at about 1,500,000.00!!
I've been looking into this myself but I've decided to leave it for the time being as the better Ice Ores are just to hard to find and usually in 0.00 space.
I'll let you make up your own mind

Oh forgot... you usually get Heavy Water/Liquid Ozone/Strontium Clathrates/Helium Isotopes and sometimes Oxygen Isotopes from Ice Ores...
