I have heard that the Mac does not like the particular way that TI has set up the CDC serial port on the rf2500 (ACM control port only, with no separate
"data" channel.)   I have not investigated in detail.

The USB chip used on all these parts is programmable, loading its code from either a serial eeprom or USB. So (unfortunately) two similar-looking devices from the same place that are supposed to do the same thing may contain different
firmware and work entirely differently.  :-(
