Our demo was viewed 4 times yet got rejection. We were very confident and feeling pretty bad now :(

We received our rejection and very disappointed. We have a disruptive idea and our demo got raving feedback from domain experts. Will post demo here soon.

Congrats to those who got invites.

This gets interesting with recent lawsuit against Apple.

Good info. Thanks for sharing

Finding good solution to a given problem is what most of the engineers do day-to-day at work.

Real entrepreneurs identify opportunities (problems) and provide solution. Remember, a problem well stated is a problem half solved.

Don't think so. YC model is biased towards college students or recent grads. Most of these folks we are talking are already working. They end up moonlighting than going for YC.

It is not that some one will start working on it without knowing what we are doing. We want to hear from hackers who are interested so that we can further discuss it.

I love YC, been to last Startup School, But hate to discuss our secrets openly here.

Yes, we are counting on first mover advantage. We would like to have few more months ahead of our imitators when we announce it :)

Nope. Just named it very vague. We first met in Starbucks before started working together.

Its just a code name.

How does this application reduce their HW & other costs anyway? Seems like they are trying to be like 'me too' with this application... unless I am missing something here.
