(This message is in the wrong forum and I'm sure it will be moved, but to answer it...)
Light Switches - look at either SS13a or SS15a.  You'd need three for the configuration you specified.
Receiver for switches - a TM751 would be enough.  The TM751 could also function as one of the plug in modules for the lamps.
Lamp Controllers - either LM465 or LM15a.  You would need two in any combination or one if you wanted to use the plug on TM751 as one of the Lamp Controllers.

This set up will give you exactly what you asked for in the simplest possible way.  There are other options to make things fancier.  Also, be sure to check out TTA's tips in the General forum of Home Automation (I think).

Check out the $39.99 package on this page.  It might be worth it.  You'd just have to add the wall switches.

You might need Active Home Pro and modules. Check www.10.com for their product line.
