Experiences with epassports.

I do not have an epassport (ie, a passport with the new chip in it). I have a lot of travel between now and December and by the time that is done my passport will be full. I can submit an appilcation when I return in which case I'd be issued a regular passport with no chip. Or, as I don't have any flying at the beginning of 2013 I can wait until the Canadian government starts to issue the new epassports. I am debating which is best. I would like to hear from FTers what their experience has been with epassports and if they are worth getting or avoiding.

Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks.
