With due respect, if you used pv, you did not do it correctly;
... dd does not need pv; don't understand why you would do that. Try building the image with the dd command (use a mac, or use a gnu+linux machine).
I doubt *very* seriously if that board is DOA...

This hardware is solid. its NOT coming up randomly for a few people (the board works, and it works well) thousands of these boards are running all over the world, and not just randomly.
edit: PS, I have now tested all images-- they all work, and they all work out-of-box; if you follow instructions. pv is not in any of the instructions.
