My renewed one arrived ... but I just read this ... Oh, sugar!

The ID Chip You Don't Want in Your Passport - Bruce Schneier, Washington Post, 9/16/06.

The money quote:
But the researcher spent only two weeks trying; the security of your passport has to be strong enough to last 10 years. It is as ridiculous to think that passport security will remain secure for that long as it would be to think that you won't see another security update for Microsoft Windows in that time.
