In the commercial units you might consider the Hitachi M12VC 2.25 hp variable speed (8k to 2+K) it is much of what you have on your wish list except for the 3/8" collet. Very low runout less than 0.001", very quiet (lowest noise level router I know of), less than $130 at Amazon or Lowes. I have three and can't speak highly enough of them, one is run 50 hours a week now cutting OEM plastic parts on a cnc router and is holding up very well.
