a few comments

I like your overall design approach. A few specific comments:
  • The box under HP probably shouldn't say "wounds", since very clearly in 4E more than ever hit points represent morale, endurance, and, well, narrative verve as much as or more than they represent physical damage.
  • Also, as I commented on Mad Irishman's 4E sheet, I use scrap paper for this rather than scribbling on my character sheet, so that box is kind of a waste. I do like the idea of the death saving throws checkboxes, though. I suppose I could get used to having it there and printing a new sheet more often.
  • XP can probably go on page 2, yeah?
  • Initiative and speed aren't Senses, but they're under the "senses" section.
  • Languages seems shoved in at an odd point.
  • Should "Attack and Damage" say "Basic Attacks"?
  • I like what you've done with the armor penalty checkboxes — much cleaner than having n/a written.
  • The feat list seems too narrow to write the names of many of the feats, let alone short notes on what they do. This is probably less of an issue in 4E where feats tend to give always-on benefits rather than situational options — which to me means that the main list can be moved to the second page, with only special cases noted on the front (maybe in the "other notes" section).
