ADK FTDI USB driver

Question

I'm trying to get the android ADK example applications working. The java stuff works fine. The arduino code compiles with no problems.

The one issue I'm having is that the ADK board is not being detected at all on my OSX even though I have the FTDI drivers installed.

I tried setting up the same thing under windows and there the board is recognized as an "Unknown Device" but even if I manually select the FTDI driver inf file windows will claim that it's not the proper driver for the ADK board.

Have any of you gotten this working? Is there something I'm missing?

UPDATE:

Spent some time working with some hardware buddies of mine and our conclusion - it's a bad chip. So thanks to everyone who put in their 2c. I really appreciate it. And I reaffirm my commitment to software over hardware ;)
