2 quick things from someone who's been there:
1: Get rid of the honors and activities section. If you're looking for a design job, nobody will care and you're just wasting space.
2: For Electronic Ink, get rid of the copy that focuses on what the company did - focus on what YOU did. Show the employer how you contributed and made a difference to the overall objective - ie: met deadlines, created concepts, etc...
Don't be vague with stuff like CD-Rom and web projects. Give titles and really play up your involvement the sucess of what you've done.
It's cheesy but recruiters have no time and the quicker you show how good you are, the quicker you'll land that gig.
Hope that helps. Good luck!
