The 2006 Engadget Awards: Nominate the Wearable Device of the Year

It's time for the 2006 Engadget Awards, and we're asking for your nominations for the Wearable Device of the Year.

Nominating is easy, here's how you do it:

• Leave a comment as you normally would with what you're nominating for this category (remember, comments must be validated!).
• Don't include your reasons for nominating it or any of that stuff, just leaving the name is fine.
• Limit your nominations only to devices that were introduced and sold for the first time in 2006 (which means no concept devices or prototypes, although we will allow updated versions of previous products).
• Nominations only need be made once to be in the running, so make a quick scan to see if someone's already beat you to your suggestion (i.e., don't nominate anything more than once!).
• We will round up the best selections, and put them to the popular vote.

Thanks, and good luck to all the gadgets!

i think apple will release the iphone in about april. i do not think apple will release the 6th gen ipod until october. i predict thr 6htgen ipod will not be wireless, we all know apple likes to take small steps

[GJP303 @ Jan 2nd 2007 8:47PM]

its been more than a year since they came out w/ the 5th gen ipod. I predict it will be early 07. You predict 2 years, uhh no, they wont do that. waaaay to long of a wait.

E2c Sound Isolating Earphones from Shure

Hardcore earbuds for the everyman!

[Brad @ Jan 3rd 2007 11:52AM]

D'oh. I suppose the E2c wasn't released in 2006. Therefore, I rescind that nomination and instead nominate:

Shure E500PTH triple driver earbuds

These, however, are not exactly priced for the everyman. :)
