I already have Piano for Dummies so you guys can keep that one out of the mix.

I'd prefer a DVD but a book will work as well.
I would recommend a guy named David Sprunger. Heres is website: Piano Lessons Learn Piano BY EAR (Free Videos Online)

He teaches you to play by ear using rythmic patterns and understanding how music works. Coupled with some basic music theory and ear training, you should be able to start playing piano freely within a week!
