Hi guys!
My name's Luciano, I live in Brazil and I was choosed to be a tester for the new Sun Certified Business Component Developer exam.
Today I received the voucher number via e-mail but I still have a little doubt.

Evelyn Cartagena said in her e-mail:
Remember after 400 beta testers have actually taken the exam, I will close the beta, so don't delay and sign up on June 4th!

My doubt:
Has Sun distributed more than 400 vouchers worldwide?
If so, will only the FIRST 400 testers have permission to do the exam?
If I register my exam to July 7th, will I run the risk to don't do the exam anymore?
I'll be thankful for any explanation.

Greetings!
Luciano Queiroz

Hi,
I have the same doubt. I think it will be too funny if you got the voucher, registered for the exam, and you are still not the first 400! IBM does not have this limitation.

I don�t think it is possible to cut off exactly 400. In extreme case imagine 300 people do the test on June 6, and the next day 500 people show up at Prometric exactly at 9:30.
