Genymotion is a breath of fresh air for Android development, much needed.
Recording screencasts is a big win. It was previously too slow using emulators or screen cappers. There are a few Android apps that do it directly on the device, but you have to root it to run them!
Also, it's great for co-workers who don't have an Android device. e.g. we're porting to iOS app right now, and the iOS developer can see Android features without having an Android device.

Not clear if it's buildable purely from the repository currently (I haven't tried). It was previously an independent open-source project, AndroVM [2], which Genymobile acquired, but they agreed to keep the core open-source [3].
