Milwaukee is top of the line and has everything.  I like Porter Cable and
have an 18V drill.  I also like Bosch.  I have a 14.4 drill and a 24V skill
saw and reciprocating saw.  DeWalt is another good brand as is Makita.

18V is a good battery size.  Check the tool for comfort, is the switch easy
to use.  Larger batteries are heavier.  There is no grantee that the
batteries they use now will be the same form factor down the road.  As for
chargers the Bosch charger will do all Bosch batteries of similar form
factor.
