sql shorthand not working for me

Haven't tried this, but give it a shot and see what happens. More on the second parameter of the $this->db->select() can be found in the user guide:

[pre]
function get_product_by_id($id)
{
$this->db->select('product.*', false)->from('product')->where('product.id', $id);
$query = $this->db->get();
return $query->result();
}
[/pre]
