Great story on the founding (and funding) of Ooma. The truth is that every startup has their version of this story . . . love gain, lost, and sometime returned. The startup life is never simple . . . reading between the lines of this story you can gather the disappointment, betrayal, even now-faded anger for everyone involved. Sometimes its easy to jump to conclusion on who’s right and who’s wrong . . . but unless you’ve ever tried to start a company youself, you’ll never understand that there is no sides, no morality, no truths . . .
The herculean act of starting company is a miracle in of itself; enjoy it, revel in the experience, appreciate the people that once (and maybe still) believed in the impossibility with you. And finally learn to let “it” go . . . all the drama, conflicts, and rumors.
Thats the best advice I wished I had received almost 10 years ago. . .
