You can have a Nomad with rechargeable batteries. I do.

I owned one and it played every cartridge I threw at it.

You guys should consider the Genmobile design flaw that Hobie pointed out in this thread:

You get what you pay for, that's all I'm saying. They run under $50, but for the price they are a lot of fun and a cheap way to play some genesis and mega drive games on the go.

True enough, but a cheaper item doesn't necessarily equate to a better value. Perhaps some people would prefer to pay a bit more than the Genmobile to get a product where the cartridge slot is screwed to the board rather than simply soldered on.
