Are there any EECS PhD students who are willing to read my statement of purpose?

I am a prospective PhD student applying for the EECS department as you may have inferred from the title. I have a few particular questions about my statement of purpose, and there is probably no better group to ask than those who have already written successful statements. I'm trying to find a balance between describing my research experiences with enough technical detail to show that I know what I'm talking about and not boring the admissions committee to death. I am wondering if I've spent too much time on one part and not enough on others. If anyone (especially an EECS student or faculty member) is willing to read my statement of purpose and provide some feedback I would greatly appreciate it.
