I would buy a Motorola device to get faster updates, but do they even have phones worth getting?

I'm glad PBS decided to do a report on Startup Accelerators. AngelPad was immensely helpful for Crittercism.

Re:AngelPad Opens Up Its Summer 2011 Applications on Thursday April 14, 2011 @04:15AM (#2446045)
I was a cofounder in the second batch of AngelPad (www.crittercism.com) Here's why I would recommend AngelPad:

- Coworking space: received a lot of great feedback and help from the other cofounders. We also became pretty good friends with all of the other teams.

- Founder experience: a lot of the other founders had a lot of work experience. One founder was the first product manager at youtube, first employee at slide.

- Industry connections: a lot of the mentors are still in industry (VPs at LinkedIn, Facebook, etc). The google mafia is VERY WELL connected. Basically, you can pretty much get access to anyone you need to be successful, from top VCs to the CEO of twitter.

- Mentors: we had five mentors that were impressively available (Thomas Korte met with every team every monday for 30 minutes and you met with another mentor usually at least once a week). I exchanged emails at 2am with one of the mentors throughout the program! All of the mentors are amazing and people you really look forward to working with.
