@toyz, I noticed that after I did the run boot_recover, on that first reboot, pushing the menu/rotate buttons actually displayed output to the terminal indicating the buttons had been pressed. They don't while in the bad flashed firmware. After it does that first boot though, it goes back to the bad firmware, so it doesn't help us too much. I tried doing a flash during that first reboot while the "Pocket Edge" logo displayed, but it didn't take. So the button connections must be wired differently for the regular edge, which explains why those of us with the bad firmware are not able to reflash.
I agree that tftpboot over usb is probably the best option. I don't have the usb-ethernet cable, and have no experience with it, so I'm just sort of fumbling about. I know some folks who might, and have been looking around for an IRC room with people with experience usinb tftpboot with embedded devices.
One thing to note - don't attempt to put in a microSD card with a partially disassembled edge (with the cover off the e-Ink screen). Mine fell into the board, so I'm going to have to completely remove the circuit board to get the card out.
