[casual_games] Meet Publishers & Distributors AND Protect my IP ? ... and other questions!

[Eric Trudel]

I plan to go to the casual connect meeting in Seattle next month. 

I plan to meet publishers and distributors and pitch our working prototype.
But I want to keep my IP and not be scared that I will be shoved off and my
game idea stolen and beaten to the market by some publisher with a lot of
cash and no ethics. 

My questions are to other fellow developers: 

1- Should I make them sign and NDA before the meeting? How does that work
usually?
2- Any good NDA template for that type of meeting?
3- How do you usually prepare for those meetings? (15 minutes game elevator
pitch) 
4- What do publishers and distributors want to know during those meetings?
5- Any dos and donts?

Thanks a lot for your input.
