No great solutions here, and I realise this is very late, but I was in your position at the same time, so here is my experience. Smile | :)

I passed 70-315 last year because I wanted to move out of support and into C# development (70-548 replaces 70-316, by the way - Windows-based programming). I also had a feeling that finding a job after having a baby would be a bit of a challenge, so I went for the "easiest" exam given my personal experience with web development. I can't say it got me the job I wanted - my current position involves supporting Microsoft Word! - but it did help to "fill in the blank" on my CV a little, and I got some positive feedback from recruitment agencies (not that they would know 70-315 from a CompTIA A+ - but at least they were willing to put my CV forward).

I have to say getting a job when there's a gap on your CV is an uphill struggle, whatever worthwhile thing you've been doing since your last job. Just getting to the interview stage was a pain - Recruiters loathe it when they can't tell at a glance what you've been up to, so anything you can put to fill in your three years might get you past the initial hurdle. If you have the time and the money, I say go for the exam - I'm sure decent study guides will turn up soon.
