Yes, considering they don't get memory as you recharge/use them.

They're just an issue of money.  You don't get the memory, but you get the debts

NiMH don't have the memory effect, only NiCads do.   ::)  And it's more than an issue of money.  If you don't know what you're doing, you could end up with some flaming/exploding Li-ion batteries on your hands.   Just stay away from them unless you plan on thoroughly researching them and being real careful.  NiMH are the way to go.

In that case, are there any like exotic sized battery packs that are small NiMH, but can supply around 6-9 volts, something better than a rechargeable 9V because 9V's usually have less than 500mAh?

Definitely.  On the main SOR website, there are links to several battery sites that cell all sorts of NiMH battery packs.

I think I answered my own question with gearheads- I found this site http://www.trossenrobotics.com/store/c/2651-Robotics.aspx which has excellent gearheads at even better prices http://www.trossenrobotics.com/store/c/2882-DC-Motors.aspx.
