THE DATE HAS BEEN SET ON AUGUST 3 2013!
START TIME : 12:00 !

Fill in the Poll and I will get an indication as to when most people are able to attend.
Theme for 2013 :
Beauty Swap!
Bring something you would like to swap with fellow Deskthorians.
Day entertainment:
1. DUMPSTER : Since going to my local dumpster keyboard supplier is too far away ( 1 hour drive to get there ), I'll be dumping my own dumpster keyboard finds at the event location for you to browse through. Who knows what you'll find? Plus , it will clean up my attic considerably
2. C64 : I'm going to (finally) build my C64 keyboard on that day: http://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/mec6 ... dore%20c64 Either watch or participate.
3. PROJECTS : I'll be showing you all my current interface related projects. If you guys are interested I can show you my other ( non-interface related ) projects as well.

Evening entertainment :
After the gathering , we will visit Eindhoven and have a nice meal at a local restaurant.

Yay, maybe I could even attend this, if I somehow manage to get there.
I guess, the earlier, the better. Also September 13 is my birthday, so I feel indifferent about September 14.
I'll start university in October afaik, and I would like some time before to get used to living somewhere else, so I voted for the first two dates.

PM me to reserve a seat The 1st one will take the front seat The backseats are not that comfortable.

I added August 3 as an extra option tinlong117....
Regretfully all other votes did reset when I did that, so people would need to vote again....
So, please VOTE AGAIN(!)

Well, I am not from Hamburg but I can easily get there. I don't have a car and it would be the cheapest option to find a lift from someone near me7bit wrote:There are at least 2 more from Hamburg.

I can recommend this hotel:
Here is a direct link:

The only hotel in Best is also recommendable, but not as nice as the one in Geldrop:

Updated OP with the date for the DT keyboard party #2 : August 3 2013!
I'm looking into a much bigger location for the event so more people are able to attend.

What kind of location do you have in mind?
The location I'm looking into is this one : http://www.fundainbusiness.nl/kantoor/e ... 80-wal-28/
Plus there would be ample parking space in the back.

I mean all key caps.
The location is perfect for the purpose and I expect there enough people to do it within one week-end.
edit: I will let Melissa ship them directly to you so I don't need to bring them over from Berlin. Also, I will have less trouble with the customs ...

I usually like bars/restaurants which have party/event rooms for hire. Because you can be catered to the same time. Must be plenty in Eindhoven. I could also offer a very large place in Zeeland, but it would mean two hours more driving for the Germans - hardly near Eindhoven.

I'm planning to go. I don't fly, but there seem to be good trains available. I will be in Essen the weekend before, and I think I will visit Amsterdam in the days between.
When do we need to be in Eindhoven, to not miss any of the action?

Eindhoven itself has an airport that is often used for "cheaper" flights so probably best to try thatHID45 wrote:Where's the nearest airport with cheap-flight operators like Norwegian, Air Berlin, Ryanair or such?
