Summary: 

Are there any consumer electronic devices that will not work properly, or
that will not work well using NiCad batteries due to the lower voltage
supplied by these cells?  I have noticed that an FM walkman that I have
stops working suddenly at a certain point in the life of normal batteries,
even though the same batteries will still operate other devices ok for a
while longer.
