I ended up resolving this issue by uncommenting
TexLet g:Tex_TreatMacViewerAsUNIX = 1
and setting the following explicitly:
TexLet g:Tex_ViewRule_pdf = 'open -a Preview'
I tried Gianluca's solution, but the problem continued to persist.
Hope that helps anyone that has been stuck getting the latex suite working
in OS X.
thanks
