I have several of the Ryobi 18 volt tools (drills, impact driver, pole saw, weedeater). All of them have worked flawlessly.
For the price you're considering, I would suggest you take a look at the Ryobi 18-Volt ONE+ Lithium-Ion Starter Drill Kit at Home Depot for $69. Meets your criteria for price, power and battery type.

I received this Ryobi drill bundled with the Impact Driver kit as a gift a couple of years ago and both of them have worked flawlessly. When I first received them, I really didn't expect much from them at all, but I have been VERY pleasantly surprised by both of them. The Li-Ion batteries are great, too -- fast charges and much longer lasting. I've beat the heck out of both of these tools and they haven't given up yet. Plus, the overall ONE+ system is pretty broad if you decide to expand your suite of cordless tools.
You may be able to pick up the 2 battery kit for only $10 more... at least it's on sale at our local HD (not sure about yours):

I just bought a corded Ridged Hammer drill and it has A life time warranty and when I registered it I saw that they will replace the drill and or batteries FOR LIFE. My next cordless drill will be ridged.
