Setting up a home network

    Hi, I'm interested in setting up a home network and I am looking for some suggestions or some links to help me see what low cost options are out there.
    I have the following...
    Toshiba Laptop
    Netgear Rangemax WPN824 Vs Router connected to UPC broadband modem.
    WD TV (not the live version)
    WD 1TB Hard Drive
    60GB Ipod & USB Ipod Dock.
    HP Printer (non Wifi) but I will upgrade to a Wifi one soon.
    Sony Bravia LCD TV with a nice Sony DAV-X1G Home Cinema system
    Sky+ HD
    Stereo in kitchen & bedroom.
    Iphone 3GS

    What are my options with these items?
    Initially I would like to set up an office in one bedroom with the HD and Printer based there. I would like to connect these to a network and be able to access the HD remotely and send documents to print remotely.

    Then I would like to set up a way of playing music and movies from the HD to the WDTV/TV and to the stereo in the kitchen. Is a Apple Airport system the best for this?
