There is this self paced training kit with almost everything in it:

ISBN-13: 978-0-7356-2334-7 ISBN-10: 0-7356-2334-1 Glenn Johnson Tony
Northrup
..NET Framework 2.0 WebBased Client Development

I've asked around,. but there really is no need for other books, if you get
what is written in the book. If you're not sure about certain subjects
explained in this book you might want to study more, but in principle it's
all there. :-)

Well I am starting 70-528 myself, but I would say between 200 and 400
studyhours each.

Just passed the 70-536 exam... i recommend:
- work through the self paced training book for this exam (took me a couple
of months to complete... depends how much u already know):
http://www.microsoft.com/MSPress/books/9469.aspx
- then spend a couple of weeks revising and taking practice exams from
somewhere like MeasureUp, Transcender, etc

Do same for the 70-528 exam (which is what im working through now!).

I also used the eLearning course collections 5160 & 5161 for the 70-536 exam
but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
