The C12 cordless drill was the first to have a brushless motor.  I'm not sure when that was, maybe 2006 or 2007?

hey thanks... i just did a quick search and found this article... http://toolmonger.com/2006/09/05/finds-festools-c12-cordless-drill/ and in it, it give a hint that the c12 goes all the way back to 2003... unless i read it wrong.
