WHen the key wont move, try turning the steering wheel one way or another. There is an antitheft device that locks the steering wheel in position and sometimes does not release when you put the key in the ignition. A smal wiggle of the steering wheel usually allows the key to turn :)

How worn is your key? A new key made directly from the VIN (NOT a copy from home depot) may work better.
The ignition assembly is a dealer only part by the way.
