As far as I know you can get GPS units that will work with rechargeable batteries but you have to take the batteries out of the unit to charge them using a separate charger. I could be wrong about that though - check supplier websites like Garmin and see if there're any rechargeable models.

Rechargeable batteries are the job.

I've got a Magellan explorist 110. Works on 2 AA batteries. It's a very easy GPS, waterproof en pretty cheap. I use the worldmap which came free and it all works quit well. Bought it a few months ago for 60 euros.
