The other companies above are also excellent, but are just a little harder to get fixed or replaced

Ha! Craftsman tools are not worth the price. I worked for Sears for 3 years in H.S. Trust me on this one. Quality wise their about the same as Black & Decker. Their lifetime warrenty does not cover anything except hand tools. Don't buy Sears ppp (product protection plan) it's just not economical. On this note, the Craftsman Professional drills are actually quite nice, but still not worth the price.
Stay away from DeWalt, too. Their overpriced (allthough semi decent).
Ryobi used to be a good brand, but not any more. They actually make allot of the craftsman drills now.
Good brands are Milwakee, Makita, and Bosch (yeah, I can't spell.)

That being said, are you sure you need cordless tools? How often are you really going to be out of reach of electricty?
I know you said you wanted cordless tool, but I'd like to suggest corded tools. They'll preform much better, last longer, and be easier on your pocket book.
If you simply must have a cordless drill, look up
http://harborfreight.com. I got a cordless 18v drill from them for $15. Their low quality, but they get the job done. I'd reccomend going there for a cordless and thake the money you saved and put it into a solid corded makita drill that will last forever. More then likely, this route will be much less then a decent quality cordless drill.
