First time applicant. Waiting to hear back as well. We'll keep going and we're in the bay area regardless this summer, so maybe I'll meet some of you guys there.

Are you interested in meeting up in the bay area this summer? We will be there anyway too.

Definitely!

Considering there are a few thousand people waiting for the results I am surprised there are not more comments on this post.

I personally was trying to play it cool

I personally learned a lot from the overall process. Being rejected would only mean learning more and trying harder. Same thing goes for being accepted. YC is not the ultimate goal, but perhaps the most powerful motivation that would help you get there. Also a first time applicant here.

Nice. What's the manufacturing costs of every button? I liked the gallery example better - much more interesting because you have much more things to like/dislike (it's not as binary as a cafe). Could also be used for IKEA style stores. Good luck!

Thanks. In China, we can get the device to cost less than $7. Yes museums and art galleries is where it works great.

Didn't make the cut. The process has thought one thing or two about how to pitch our project better... Hopefully to catch you, and the rest, on a different occasion. Good luck to you all.
