Bought a "Wireless GamePad V2.0". A red led lights up when turned on by battery power, but Arduino does not "see" the GamePad. It does not connect and I cannot send a program to it. I've been very careful to plug the usb cable in properly and have checked that the xbee radios are working. Any ideas as to what the problem is?

Will give it a new bootloader at some point and see if that helps... have a second GamePad coming... if that doesn't work then it's thumbs down on either the product or the documentation. sipuncula
