After a little research, I'm fairly sure it's a Phidippus otiosus spider.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/250s f/10.0 at 60.0mm iso400 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Wow. Very nice detail pablo. I think jumpers are some of the most interesting spiders around --- and this one is no exception.

Looks quite cute from this angle! Like a teddy bear, that bites back!

Definitely a "Jumping Spider", but to exact species can be difficult. I usually submit them to "BugGuide" for proper ID's. Nice shot of the little one.
