FW Player & Wordpress Plug-in at DVinfo.net

I asked this of Josh Mellicker since I like the way video is deployed on his site and he suggested I post here to get everyone's ideas. Thanks for your patience with a newby:
Here's what I THINK I want to do for now:
I'd like to create a basic product website with likely only 2 pages & 4 different product videos. I'm thinking of using Wordpress on my hosts server for this as I'm a complete illiterate when it comes to HTML design/coding.
The website would describe the different types of videos clients could get for their $$$ and show an example.
I do currently have CS3 and know how to encode .flvs but embedding them in my webpage is beyond me at this point and thus my hope of using WP though I've heard of problems embedding video there.
Would appreciate your thoughts, what plug-in's I would need, etc. on how to make this work. Thanks for your help. JLee
