IceCube is a cubic kilometer neutrino telescope under construction at the South Pole, a successor to the first-generation AMANDA telescope. IceCube is now three quarters complete, with completion expected in early 2011, and data taken with the partially built detector already provides a sensitivity surpassing the complete AMANDA-II data set. Results from searches for astrophysical sources of neutrinos and for evidence of dark matter with both AMANDA and IceCube are summarized. We also discuss plans for Deep Core, an enhancement of IceCube designed to extend its sensitivity to neutrinos below the TeV scale.
