Update: BabyNameWizard.com is also a New York based company, bringing our final count to eleven! Congratulations again to all companies involved.

Last night, at the NY Startup Classic (a partnership between CEA/Digital Downtown and the NY Tech Meetup), 5 absolutely stellar NY tech startups — Aviary, Drop.io, Livestream, MakerBot, and Peek — battled for the chance to win a free booth at CES in Las Vegas next year.

Making the ultimate decision was an expert panel, including Joshua Fruhlinger (Senior Editor at Engadget), Albert Wenger (Partner at Union Square Ventures and former President of Delicious), and Aaron Cohen (CEO of AnyClip and formerly of Menu Pages, Bolt.com, etc).

After the preentations, the judging panel convened and, after much deliberation, the decision was at a standstill between two finalists. At this point the folks at CEA/Digital Downtown alerted the judges that they could award a second booth, and so the announcement was made:

Aviary and MakerBot — two great NY Tech Meetup companies — will be heading to CES in Las Vegas in 2010!

Thanks to the presenting companies, the judges, and most of all to CEA/Digital Downtown for the opportunity!
