The people have spoken!

The Boxee Box by D-Link open-source media player, Microvision's SHOWWX laser pico projector, Clixtr and Gwabbit have been named the winners of Last Gadget Standing and the Mobile Apps Showdown, two of the most fiercely competitive 2010 CES contests.

The "best of" in tech gadgetry and smartphone applications were determined by thousands of consumers and tech enthusiasts through a live CES audience applause-o-meter and an online vote.

The competitions, which are co-produced by Living in Digital Times and NetShelter Technology Media, whittled down dozens of submissions in order to find the cream of the crop.

Last Gadget Standing

Microvision's SHOWWX, the world's first laser pico projector, was selected as the winner of the Last Gadget Standing online vote.
