Spice models for PICAXE chips?

Does anyone know of any Spice/P-Spice models for the PICAXE chips? I've never seen any. Is a Spice model (with the ability to plug code into the model) even possible for a micro-controller? I ask because plugging a PICAXE model into a program like Circuitmaker would be a great way to breadboard without actually breadboarding.

Microntroller models do not exist within SPICE (which only supports analogue devices). To use SPICE simulation of circuits you need a hybrid product that can do SPICE simulation of circuits and also at the same time 'link in' to a parallel digital simulation of microcontrollers.

There are not many products that can do this as it is extremely difficult to program - but PICAXE VSM is designed to do exactly that!
