Yes, Ryobi has a ton of tools for the cordless world...I had no idea either.
I talked to one of the guys at Home Depot...he said prices are all over the place...some of it is based on the Name Brand, but a lot of it is based on the type of battery. In the Lithium Ion world there are a couple of different generations and that is where a lot of the costs come in to play for the more expensive ones.
I definitely see where buying the bigger sets has economies of scale.
I keep hearing that Makita or Hitachi have long term reliability...lot's of choices.
The big thing is catching a sale on a set.
Keeping eyes open.

I have Dewalt, Makita, Ryobi and Milwaukee sets of six tools per kit for around 9 months now.
I listed them in the order of job site dependence for myself. Milwaukee I'll never buy again, batteries are rather useless under load.
Ryobi and Rigid have awesome warranties, I think they might be the same company. All the kits are Ion and 19V.
If just wanting the drill/impact I'd go with the best warranty/price.
I have been enjoying Home de pot since returning.
