Marc,
Although I don't have any information on study guides for the 1.4 exam, I can suggest that you try my mock exam which is fortuitously well adapted to the 1.4 exam. The most recent version of my exam has 71 questions covering inheritance, initialization, inner classes, casting, operators, control flow, and exception handling. The 71 questions are divided between three exams of 23 or 24 questions each. Each of the three exams contain questions from all of the above topics. After taking the first mock exam, you can study to correct your weaknesses and then you can take the next of the three exams. You will probably find that your score improves on each exam.
I have been adding new topics every few days, but I haven't done the AWT and IO topics yet. Apparently, there is no longer a need. On the other hand, I have already paid for my 1.2 voucher so I suppose that I need to study those topics anyway.
Like the 1.4 exam, my mock exam does not cover AWT and IO. Also, like the 1.4 exam, it dives a little deeper into each topic.
The next version of the exam will probably be up in a couple days. To keep the size of each exam down to about twenty questions, the next version will probably have four exams rather than only three. Also, I will probably offer additional exams that focus on a single topic so that
SCJP aspirants can take topic specific mock exams as they move through their study guides chapter by chapter. I actually develop the questions in a set of xml files such that each file covers only a single topic so it won't be difficult to offer topic based pages on my web site.

Please take a look at my exam and let me know what you think. Val, the bartender, might prefer that you post any comments concerning the exam in the
thread titled New Mock Exam.
