I found this bug in my apartment in Chicago. We had bed bugs in our house the previous year (but we thought we got rid of them). This bug was very small - maybe 2 millimeters in length. These photos are all of the very same bug (just different lighting).
Answer
This is a really old thread but just in case someone happens upon it, this isn't a bed bug.
I am not an expert but it looks like it's likely a book louse or psocid. See comparison photos of unfed first instar bed bug nymphs vs. psocids/booklice here: http://bedbugger.com/2008/03/04/booklice/ It's all about the shape of the head and body.
