Apparently the new passports that they are coming out with (once they switch over to the 10 year ones in 2013) will have a lot more security features (some obvious and some not so obvious according to my wife... I'd tell you what they are but my wife would kill me).
They will also be embedded with a micro chip that will have that person's passport data on it.
The intention of course, is to make forgery a lot more difficult.... for the average forger of course... I doubt it will pose any problems for most foreign governments who are intent on forgery.
