    Do you like tight leather pants and beer? Then you'll love hanging out with us and our German colleagues tomorrow in the Sommergarten of Messe Berlin, host of the IFA tradeshow. The shindig is from 1PM to 3PM (13:00 to 15:00 hours if you like your timestamps Euro-style). There will be free t-shirts and, of course, beer, but we know you'll come just for the "supah" conversation. No RSVP is required, so just stop by whenever and nerd out with us German style -- Thomas and Paul will be there, along with most of the Engadget German crew, a melding of gadget minds that's just not to be missed. The map is after the break.

    Just in case you haven't heard, we're letting you in on a little secret here: Engadget German is the official blog of IFA 2009, so we figured we'd give you a small taste of what's going down in Deutschland in case you've yet to make it over. Our well-traveled compatriots have already dug up a few gems at the show, with the most notable being the Dension Wi Drive. Put simply, this system enables users with HDD-based entertainment systems in their vehicles to access files and playlists whilst at home. 'Course, it seems as if this would be all the more helpful done in reverse, but hey, you've got to start somewhere. There's also a few new headphones from the good folks at Sennheiser, and a new take on the old range booster from Wi-Ex. Have a look through the read links below, and just in case you're wondering -- yes, you can expect English translations directly on their site for the best IFA has to offer going forward.Read - Dension Wi DriveRead - New Sennheiser headphonesRead - Wi-Ex zBoostRead - Creative Inspire S2Read - New Audio-Technica earbudsRead - Alien-inspired Altec Lansing speakersRead - Hello Kitty YP-U5 audio player

    Interesting fact about Berlin: all the buildings here look like spaceships! Also, the city plays host to the IFA tradeshow each year, a sprawling landscape of gadget treasure, and we're here to pick up where we left off last year. Today we've got a Sony press conference to look forward to, and tomorrow we'll be hit by a tidal wave of announcements from the rest of the industry -- or at least that's the plan. We'll also be hitting up the show floor soon enough with our pals from Engadget Spanish and Engadget German, the latter of which has been dubbed the official blog of the show! Engadget German will also be hosting a reader meetup on Saturday at the convention center, so stand by for more information on that. Naturally, all of this will take place within massive buildings that look like spaceships.
