Raspberry PI Pico usable in Arduino IDE?

IDE V2-RC6
I have a genuine Raspberry Pi Pico (early version). I can upload and successfully run the example "blink without delay". However when I try to upload a slightly larger program the upload fails.

I see a message "Performing 1200-bps touch reset on serial port COM10" but the "blink without delay" just uploaded.
I've installed this board driver:

Question: Is the Raspberry Pi Pico worth the bother?
