If you're also including Vietnamese noodles, here are a couple more, in addition to Chinese noodles.
Egg noodles: These are thin, yellow noodles with a slightly eggy flavor. They're good for soup, frying, and more. There's also a variety that's a little wider, but it's usually less "bouncy" than the thin ones.
Pho noodles: This is basically a Vietnamese rice noodle that can be found in different widths. It's primarialy used in the Vietnamese dish, Pho.
Rice Stick Noodles (Mai Fun): These are thin rice noodles that can be used in spring rolls, soup, and fried dishes.
Vermicelli Noodles: This is similar to mai fun, but when cooked, it's transparent and has more of a bouncy texture.
Oh, and if you're planning on cooking Chinese food, you might want to invest in a wok.

This is pretty much common sense, but when stiry-frying food, make sure you don't overcook whatever it is you're frying.
