According to an article on VNUNet.com, IT prospects for women are looking good. In fact it notes that women in IT are achieving higher pay raises than men across all sectors.

From the ACM TechNews Abstract:

The Chartered Management Institute’s (CMI) 30th annual national management salary survey indicates that salaries and opportunities for female IT professionals are at their highest level yet, with women’s pay raises overtaking those of men for the eighth consecutive year across all sectors. Women achieved a median pay raise of 5 percent this year, 0.3 percent more than men, while female IT managers currently earn 47,315 pounds a year, on average.

The survey results seem to be specifically for the UK, but it shows a great trend for all women pursuing technology-related careers.
