I'm also exploring my options regarding PMP certification and was wondering the same thing!! While I haven't found any real numbers yet, it appears that it depends a lot on the perspective organization and its "view" of the certification.

I attended a PMI sponsored meeting yesterday and it was mentioned that being a PMP results in a 10% salary increase on average.

Gartner Research says that PMP holders can expect about 20% more than non-PMP PM's. I've also seen that the high-end PM jobs seem to either require or prefer it. Also, with Microsoft embracing it, seems like a no-brainer to get it if you can.
