You are correct to say that at this time, the demand for C/S guys is very low (essentially non-existent), for 3 main reasons, I believe. #1, the service-provider job market right now is total crap. #2 - to compound that problem the technologies that exam is based on are truly bleeding edge even for the service-provider such that there isn't exactly a groundswell demand for those particular skills. So we're talking about a particularly bad segment of a particularly bad job market. And of course #3 - Cisco hasn't exactly done the best job in marketing the C/S. Seriously I can find very few people who know what it is, even people working in the service-provider space.
