There's your problem.  That image is not dd-able.  You need to either:

a) copy the image to a usb stick from a solaris/opensolaris system that
you have installed usbcopy[1] on

or

b) you can try the windows usb creator located at:

http://devzone.sites.pid0.org/OpenSolaris/opensolaris-liveusb-creator

I've never used this and it's not produced by Oracle so your mileage may
vary.  The 'supported' option is option a.

1 - you can get usb_copy installed on a opensolaris system using:
pfexec pkg install SUNWdistro-const or by grabbing the script directly from:
