With a Eurail pass you do not always need a reservation, even in Germany. Get ahold of some pamphlets at the train stations, or look online at schedules, and often they will tell you whether a certain leg or certain time-frame on the leg needs a reservation. Sometimes, even when it says you need to reserve a seat, the train is empty enough that you can get away without one, but its best not to gamble.
When I went, we bought the 21 day unlimited travel Eurail pass, and we even managed to get 23 days out of it because the first attendant who checked the pass wrote the wrong dates on the pass. If the attendants on the last couple days had looked closer and done the math they could've figured out that we were over our time, but often they just glance at it and hand it back.
Oh, and while you are in Florence (Firenze) I would suggest heading down to Siena. It is so much nicer. Its about a 45 minute trip, but you often have to change trains at a small town between Pisa and Florence (forgot the name).
Vietato atraversare il binario! and have a good time!
