I don't know anything about plone, but...

if you want to change a property of an item you can google for info on 
"manage_changeProperties", however I would be very careful about changing 
things in the Products folder!!!

Do you want to change the product or an instance of a product/class?  In 
which case you need to be accessing the instance object not the Product 
object.

It makes no difference as to whether you are using zeo or not.

As I said I know nothing about plone, but changing the location of products 
after they are installed sounds like a good way to cause yourself some 
serious pain. ;-)
