Is there a decent router in the $100 - $125 range for a beginner?
Sure!
Look for a Porter Cable 690 or Bosch 1617 reconditioned. I paid $90
for my last single speed 690 and $95 for the 1617.
Lookee here:

A single speed 1617, with both bases, for $139.
You can also look for a plunge base on eBay or Craigslist for the
units I mentioned in the second line. You can do LOTS with a single
speed basic router.
You can make the NEXT router the heavy duty, high HP variable speed,
plunger, as one router is never enough! <G>
