The time has come for you to lend your voice to our Last Gadget Standing competition. It’s the first, but not the last, time that we’ll ask you. We’ve got some killer products signed up for this year’s competition, with more coming in every day.

Deadlines:

On Dec. 1st we will look at your ratings to help us determine the 25 semi-finalists. So start clicking on the star ratings now.

On Dec. 11th the nomination process is officially over.

The judges will take your recommendations and their insights to create a top ten list of finalists to join us at CES Last Gadget Standing on Jan. 12th. Two products on the list will be mystery products that will not be disclosed until the first day of CES. Jon Hein and Gary Del’Abate, our wonderful friends from the Howard Stern Wrap Up Show, will be on hand to lead our competition. If you’re at CES please join us for the live event. If you’re not you’ll be able to vote online for your absolute fav.

Remember, the Last Gadget is a people’s vote. Journalists and pundits ogle the fleeting hot gadget. Consumers think different. They want to know what will endure, and it’s up to you to let them know.

If you feel like a product should be entered that’s not… well, go ahead and send a comment. I’ll hound them for you. If you feel a product isn’t up to snuff… be nice, but post a comment as well. And if you think a product rocks, then say it loud.

Can’t wait to see you all in Vegas,

Robin

About

Last Gadget Standing

 

The Last Gadget Standing looks for products that are more than just a flash in the pan. They are products that will endure and are pioneering the ways in which the digital world will change. Any exhibitor at CES can enter a product into the Last Gadget Standing – though it must be a , not a service or software. Products need to have shipped during 2011 or be available for shipping by the end of Q2 of 2012. We honor NDAs and we reserve two spaces for products that have winner potential but won’t be announced until the show.

 

Old timers, sorry, but we’ve had to include a small entrée fee this year to cover the costs of the production and space. There is a $500 entry fee.

 

 

How We Judge Your Products

 

Our panel of expert judges have multiple years of expertise in reviewing products. Judges include Michael Miller, Harry McCracken, Dan Costa, Mellissa Perenson, and Joanna Stern. Our experts review your applications and narrow the list down to 25 semi-finalists. Each product submitted gets a description on the website and readers are welcome to comment. The judges will write reviews of the 25 semifinalists and we’ll continue to solicit reader comments until we narrow the list down to the Top 10.

 

The Top Ten finalists are invited to the Vegas stage where we play to a full house. Entertainment and fun are just and important as educating the audience about your product. We encourage you to watch the videos from past years and get a feel for this very different type of event. At the same time that the audience is voting live in Las Vegas we will also be asking our online followers to vote among the same top ten and choose a "people's winner." A press release announcing the winners will go out the moment the show has ended.

 

Special Host

 

We’re extremely lucky this year to have Gary “Bababooey” Dell’Abate and Jon Hein, of the Howard Stern Wrap Up Show to emcee the Last Gadget Standing . They love products and they love the CES crowd.
