TUAW Best of 2011: Vote for the best iPad accessory

The nominations are in, and the poll is ready to go! The TUAW Best of 2011 awards are all about you -- the readers -- and what you think is the cream of the crop of Apple or third-party products and software. To vote, select one entry from the top nominations made by readers. We'll be announcing the winner in just a few days. Vote early and often!

TUAW is asking for your votes for the best iPad accessory of 2011. Some of our readers apparently didn't read the nomination post closely, as we received nominations for cases (a separate category) and apps.

As a result, the nominees are: Bubcaps (4 for US$5.00) by Paperclip Robot, which are tiny caps that are used to keep toddlers or special needs kids from hitting the home button and changing to another app; the iKlip ($39.99) from IK Multimedia, a microphone stand mount for musicians using the iPad; the $99.95 iProp, a very flexible stand for hands-free use of the iPad; Pix & Stix ($24.95) which includes two capacitive drumsticks and one guitar pick; and iPad Kicks ($11.95) from Bluelounge.

And now, let the voting begin! The results will be announced on December 30, 2011.
