Shop Savvy got me half-price at Best-Buy on a phone charger. I scanned it at the store, and Best-Buy's webside listed it for half of what it rang up for at the till. They honored their website price. This is an app I'm going to keep.

About

MOBILE APPS SHOWDOWN

spacer

The Mobile Apps Showdown is a fast-paced contest where you're asked to weigh in on the apps you think have what it takes to make it. For the months leading up to the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2012) we'll be presenting the contestants to you. You can try them, watch demos, make your feelings known, and ultimately vote on a winner. We're platform agnostic, so if it's mobile it's in the competition.

The top ten apps will join us at CES 2012 for an action packed event hosted by Jon Hein and Gary Dell'Abate from the Howard Stern Show.

Robin Raskin, creator of the Mobile Apps Showdown, will be there to emcee events.

By the end of this year more than 7 billion apps will have been downloaded. Only you know which ones are the keepers.
