Dave,
I've been in the same position for almost a year now, with the need to evaluate embedded passives getting bumped in priority by each successive project.
It's probably safe to post the e-mail addresses, but to err on the side of caution I'll just mention the two people and organizations that have been very helpful on this subject.
The first is Bruce Mahler at Ohmega Tech. for embedded resistors (ohmega.com)
The second is Robert Carter at Faradflex for embedded caps (faradflex.com)
Good luck with your project.

Subject: [DC] Embedded Passive PCB
Have a few designs that have reached the limit as far as usable PCB surface space for components and am investigating the feasibility of embedded passives. Specifically I am looking at the specification of "foil" materials and patterns versus embedding actual physical components.
Can anyone provide feedback on experiences with this technology:
- Are there many fabricators who build embedded passive PCBs?
- Is there a huge cost premium involved?
- Is embedded passive PCB fabrication offered as a standard production service ( as opposed to advanced / limited qty)?
- Are the materials used all proprietary?
Thanks,
Dave
