I would definitely do it. Remeber too that the 2010 exams might be out 3-6 months after the product (I've seen delays of over a year before) and even longer to get material out that you can use to study (most of the 2010 books are due in Sep/Oct or next year).
It was quite a good exam and if you have great .NET skills and look at the exam guide (it tells you what to study up on), then you should be fine. There are not practice exams, usually I use Self Test Software (http://www.selftestsoftware.com) but they only have the config exams. The 2010 stuff will be slightly different but it is worth learning the WSS 3.0 stuff. The API won't change 'THAT' much... and having a solid and broad base is the best. The SharePoint 2007 Dev exam is different, there are significant changes with Search, Services, BDC etc.. to warrant skipping it, but again a good solid base is a good thing.

If you read the following book that will be great help. http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Windows-SharePoint-Services-Developer/dp/0735623201 I think this exam is still good as it covers core stuff like of features and wsp. . I have done 2010 training and one improvement I see with features and solutions is versioning else it all looks the same. <http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Windows-SharePoint-Services-Developer/dp/0735623201> On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 6:09 PM, Chris Milne <chris.mi...@dataaspects.com.au<mailto:chris.mi...@dataaspects.com.au>> wrote: Thanks guys :) From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com<mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com> [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com<mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com>] On Behalf Of Adam Clark Sent: Tuesday, 23 March 2010 2:56 PM To: ozMOSS Subject: RE: 70-541 course Chris, I would like to backup what Sezai is saying, with the release of the new 2010 product stack (and not just SharePoint applications), there is a whole lot of new certifications and information being released that will be the way to go for certifications. If you really feel that your organisation is going to hold a 2007 cert in high regards for the next 18-24 months, then, if I was in your shoes I ‘may’ consider it, but more than likely I would still lean towards getting the new 2010 certs. Hope this helps.
