With the American Music Awards taking over Los Angeles this past weekend, a few gift lounges sprung up in honor of the event.

Visitors also received gift cards to go online and custom create Fanny Wang headphones, choosing from over 1 million colors combinations for seven different headphone parts - including the chord!

Additionally, SGP's Kuel line of products included a stylist pen for the phone or tablet and the much sought-after compact car charger that uses your own USB. The charger also comes with a switch that adjusts the charge depending on whether you're charging an iPhone/iPad or Android/PC Tablet. Speaking of iPhones, visitors to the suite also got Eton's solar powered rechargeable battery for the iPhone. Known as the Mobius, the solar panel only needs one hour in the sun to provide an additional 25 minutes of talk time.
