70-157 covers the Forefront Threat Management Gateway product (the successor to ISA Server). I was planning on doing 70-351 for ISA 2006, but i think ill just do the TMG exam since the ISA tests are expiring.

I may also do the Forefront Identity & Access Management test. We used Quest ActiveRoles Server at my last job and it looks like Forefront IAM is stepping up to compete. Those types of products interest me and seem to be in a product where most people don't know how to use them, but large companies need them.

Anyone else planning on doing any of these?

Unfortunately they aren't doing any MCITP: Security or anything like that

I'm planning to do one of them gotta look at them in details though. I already passed 70-350 but long time ago.

70-157 for me. If they create a MCITP:Security, I might just gather enough motivation to go for the full monty.

I am concidering 70-158 but i have not found valid practice test for it. They advertise MeasureUp and Selftestsoftware at the
TS: Forefront Identity Manager 2010, Configuring
-page but when i searched those from their sites i couldn't find any.

At least those links at "Microsoft Online Resources" seems to be useful. I already downloaded some videos and articles about the topic.
Somehow i still prefer typical MSpress book and it's CD which contains that practice test..
