What three grooming tools (and brands) should I buy?

I am a doodle owner to be, (puppies were born 6/29 & coming home 9/4). I would like everyones' advice on what are the three tools I should have on hand. After browsing this group I'm a little nervous I won't be able to maintain the coat... (Puppy parents have wavy to fleece coats)

Ok folks, I ordered my Les Poochs brush, the green one;

"Pro Brush (M/M/S) (Medium/Medium Bristles with Soft Flex) A breakthrough in brush technology, these flexible headed brushes glide through the toughest of mats without damage to your pet's coat. Ergonomically designed to reduce strain to the arm and wrist alleviating Repetitive Motion Syndrome (R.M.S). Available in two sizes: Regular for dogs 2 LBS to 40 LBS, and wide for dogs 40 LBS and up."

I hope that's the right one... I'm still working on a comb, I have a good natural shampoo (don't recall the brand, it's in my puppy-supply crate; which seems to keep getting more and more filled...)
