Day of the Week
Using
FareChase, I was doing searches on the day of the week to best travel.
Since September 2008 searches are now allowed, I did 09/08/08-09/22/08 = $769
(MSN - TXL) (That's a Monday departure, Monday Return)
Similar good days were Tuesday and Wednesday.
A 09/08-09/18 one costs $769 as well.
The price jumps (unsurprisingly) as we near the weekend. We hit Higher on Thursdays, The $800 mark on Friday, and weekends are near $1000.

Update and some good info.
MILWAUKEE(MKE) TO BERLIN (TXL) $589
MSN TO TXL $668
GRB TO TXL $ 641
*based on dates of November of this year, due to no flights are out yet for October of next year, and prices for now are INSANE.
I have been reading a book on different customs in Germany. Very Interesting. It is called The German Way. I highly recommend it, I may re-read it as it gets closer. It is only 135 +/- pages, so it is a quick read.
There is also another one called When in Germany, Do as the Germans Do. I haven't started that yet.
I have been checking the weather right now in Germany...
BERLIN: High's in upper 50's; Low's in the lower 40's.
HAMBURG:High's in the mid to upper 50's ; Low's in the upper 30's.

Price Check
MSN - TXL (Berlin) $808
GB - TXL (Berlin) $807
Now, this is for 10/4/07 to 10/14/07, so that's coming up pretty quickly and prices are going up. This was on Farechase.com
I think that when the October 2008 scheduling becomes available, we'll see a big drop. Right now, you can only order into July 2008.
August 2008 is the farthest out you can go and that is the height of the tourist season. That's $1278.
