'01 Camry Spark Plug Change

I recently performed a 60k mile service on my '01 Camry. The service included: flushing the coolant, oil and filter, tranny fluid (drain and refill), air filter, spark plugs and wires. I've done these services numerous times on vehicles that I've owned in the past and never encountered a problem. This time however, I have a major issue. After changing the plugs and wires my car won't drive. It starts and idles fine but when put into gear it won't go (occasionally it will "catch" and move a little). I've torqued the plugs properly, checked they wires are "snapped on", checked the wires are in the correct order, and made sure I have adequate tranny fluid. Why is this problem happening? I called the dealere and thier only thought was that I needed different plugs. Any thoughts?

I dought its the plugs perhaps you knocked a wire loose somewhere else, It wouldnt start and idle if it was the plugs, It sounds like one of the sensors on the manifold. I had a similar problem the mechanic fixed it I forgot what the sensor is called, sorry. It might be similar to a electronic choke. Let it idle to normal temp then see if it runs.
