These are awesome.. and that's a stunning price. They do indeed have a rechargeable battery.. they run Linux, and you can SSH into them.. meaning you can do prettyuch anything you like with these.
I use the 500gb one as a photo backup on holiday.. stick my SD cards into it.. hit the button and it backs up the card automatically. (Standard functionality)
I then have a script which runs.. and rsyncs a differential backup to my home server via whatever WiFi this is connected too.
It's a great little device.
A word of warning.. update to the latest firmware.. a problem in earlier ones allowed the battery to be over charged if left plugged in 24/7 and caused some pretty spectacular bloated batteries.. which is highly dangerous. The warning to upgrade is fairly prominent in the WD forums, but it's not obvious otherwise. The latest version is 1.06.06 so make sure you have that one.
