I got one from dealextreme.com, you can have them ship to Germany as well if you already know the address where you'll be. They take about 12 days.

For the Eneloops, another charger will work fine. I bought a 120/240v 4 hour charger and 4 2700mAh NiMH AAs at Fry's for $15. I have two Eneloops and haven't killed 'em in 6 months of middlin' usage. As long as Amazon.de is relatively inexpensive for something like that, wait 'till you get there. With the €/$ conversion rate though, you're likely better off getting it here.
Good call on the DS charger, I didn't know such a thing existed. I will look into a 120/240 charger, I just wasn't sure if the eneloops took anything specific or not. I'd eventually like a smart charger but a cheapy will do for now

O_O 2$ !
