Mobile Apps Showdown News

Last Gadget Standing wasn’t the only event grabbing headlines at CES: Our sister event and fellow competition, Mobile Apps Showdown, also garnered some ink. Like Last Gadget, Mobile Apps showdown (MAS) is an online and live competition, but MAS pits mobile apps against each other instead of battling gadgetry. See what the press had to say about the Mobile Apps Showdown in this news roundup.

About Last Gadget Standing
I'm Robin Raskin, the founder of Living in Digital Times. Click to see more from me.
Our Host: Robin Raskin
...is a veteran tech journalist and founder of Living in Digital Times. She created Last Gadget Standing.

Our Experts:



How it works:

We welcome any and all 'hot' products slated to appear at CES. Our experts screen them. They'll continue to narrow the list until we get to a Top 25 and then a Top 10. We'll also conduct a online vote among the Top 25 to determine a "people's winner." The Top 10 will appear at a CES supersession where a live voting audience will determine which deserves to be the Last Gadget Standing.

When: Saturday, 10:30 a.m., Jan. 9, 2010

Where: Room N255-257, LVCC, North Hall, 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
