Difficulty of 70-290 VS. CCNA

I just completed the CCNA 640-801 exam, and I was wondering how the difficulty of the 70-290 exam compares to it from those who have taken both. Is it as in depth as cisco tests? I have heard that it is an adaptive test. I know these are 2 completely different subjects but I am just trying to get a feel for this test as I have never taken a microsoft cert.
I have the MS training kit and planned on looking into selftestsoftware.com for testing software. Are there any other materials I should expect to obtain in studying for this exam? Any reply is much appreciated!

70-290 is WAY easier IMO.
Lower passing score (700), much longer time for the test (3hrs), you can go back on questions, sims are easy, and over all, more concise on the material, meaning CCNA covers a lot more information.
You may learn something!
70-290 is probably the easiest exam on the mcsa track, next to 70-270.
70-291 is the killer, and the only one I failed first time. I would say that this one is more difficult than CCNA.
Ok, I agree 290 was also the easiest ms exam for me.
But as others stated id depends on your experience, big time !
