Meet the Ten Finalists for Last Gadget Standing

Already whittled down from over 100 submissions, only 10 finalists remain to win the honor of CES's annual competition, Last Gadget Standing . Past winners include such notable products as the Roomba, the Eye-Fi Card, and OnStar, making this one serious contest.

The 10 finalists were chosen by expert judges, including tech expert and Last Gadget Standing Moderator Robin Raskin, and eight editors from NetShelter Technology Media network partner sites, namely Geek.com, Slashgear.com, MobileBurn.com, PhoneArena.com, FixYa.com, I4U.com, TechEBlog.com, and TGDaily.com. Each contestant will get 4 minutes on Saturday, January 10, to demo their gadgets live in front of a crowd--and then the winner will be chosen from audience response.
