I'm currently an MCTS in SQL2005 and thought it best to upgrade to SQL2008 but go all the way to an MCITP. I've booked both exams already (70-432 in a few weeks and 70-450 in early June).
I've been reading the 70-432 MS Press book and other than a few new features nothing seems mind boggingly difficult which is odd as I found 70-431 tough going although that may have been because I was only using SQL2000 at the time. I hope I'm not being too arrogant with it!
My bigger concern is the 70-450 - I find it odd that there's no MS Press book and resources seem a little thin. I've added the Learning Plan off the MS site, but is there anything else you'd advise I look into once I get to the Pro exam?

You might want to check this.

But the word on the street has been that the 2008 exams are relatively easy with more a focus on correct choices than obscure trivia.
