I've been to a couple of those here in Austin. As soon as I hear the phrase "I just need a developer to build X.." I discount those guys. They don't get it. Last fall, I lost my patience with a few and finally said something like: "so you want a developer to work for your exclusively for three months in exchange for a sliver of equity? In the meantime, you keep your job. You don't risk anything. And when he's done that's when you'll start 'selling'? Seriously?" I'll give them credit on pushing risk to others..
