We’ve got the showgirls and swag but most of all we’ve got fantastic products that are changing the world from bike riding and car driving, to both buying and finding your glasses.

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) January 09, 2014 -- Last Gadget Standing and Mobile Apps Showdown, produced by Living in Digital Times, were the hottest competitions in town, drawing a packed house, and a ton of laughs and applause at the 2014 International CES®. Joining the ranks of past Last Gadget Standing winners in the 14th year of the competition, Kevo Lock by Kwikset, a smart lock that turns smartphones into keys was the audience fan favorite, and Skulpt Aim, the first-ever device to measure muscle quality and fat percentage of individual muscles, captured the online vote. PasswordBox is an innovative, free password manager which won over the audience as the best mobile app at the live Mobile Apps Showdown event, while Ballerz, an app that makes it easier than even to play a pick-up game with friends, took the prize for the online vote.

Keeping the crowd entertained were event hosts Jon Hein and Gary Dell'Abate, co-hosts of The Wrap Up Show on the Howard Stern channel on SiriusXM Radio, who brought their unmatched wit and knowledge of all things geek to the festivities. Attendees were treated to presentations complete with Las Vegas showgirls, a rapping duo, dancing robots, a live jam session, hilarious skits and fun trivia breaks with prizes.

“We’ve got the showgirls and swag but most of all we’ve got fantastic products that are changing the world from bike riding and car driving, to both buying and finding your glasses,” said Robin Raskin, founder, Living in Digital Times and event emcee. “And today we awarded our first young app-renuer award thanks to the Kay Family Foundation. Wow!”

So, how does a product make it to last gadget? How does an app become more than just a statistic and go on to win the showdown? Last Gadget Standing looks for devices (not a service or software) that are pioneering the ways in which the digital world will change, while Mobile Apps Showdown honors the best smartphone and tablet apps across all platforms.

Eligible products and apps were submitted in early December of 2013, and from there, two panels of esteemed judges, tech experts ranging from longtime journalists to technology consultants, to editors and product reviewers, had the difficult task of selecting the Top 25 semi-finalists for each competition. Judges chose products based on their “sustainability” to make it to the top of the heap. From there, heated discussions ensued and the lists were narrowed down further to the Top 10 gadgets and Top 10 apps that would face the people’s vote online and live at CES. Winners of online voting were determined by popular vote, and in person, an applause-o-meter measured audience enthusiasm to determine the winner.
