*Edit:
Turns out when I did begin employment with this company, I did sign a "confidentiality agreement" with non-compete description in it. I have been notified by my old company that they think I'm in violation. My current partner and his company are backing me and defending me: Basically, "unclean hands" may be my defense here. Any advice or experience with this?

are you currently in texas, and are both jobs in texas? if so, tell your old job to shove it.
non competes are very difficult to enforce in texas, however there are some limited scope agreements that are enforceable.
example of an enforceable agreement:
you cannot sell widgets in san antonio for a period of one year after leaving company A
example of trash:
you cannot sell widgets in texas for a period of 10 years after leaving company A
