There are some good examples of doing this over at the R Wiki. I'll steal a couple here:

Merge Method

Since your keys are named the same the short way to do an inner join is merge():

merge(df1,df2)

a full inner join (all records from both tables) can be created with the "all" keyword:

merge(df1,df2, all=TRUE)

a left outer join of df1 and df2:

merge(df1,df2, all.x=TRUE)

a right outer join of df1 and df2:

merge(df1,df2, all.y=TRUE)

you can flip 'em, slap 'em and rub 'em down to get the other two outer joins you asked about :)

Subscript Method

A left outer join with df1 on the left using a subscript method would be:

df1[,"State"]<-df2[df1[ ,"Product"], "State"]

The other combination of outer joins can be created by mungling the left outer join subscript example. (yeah, I know that's the equivalent of saying "I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader...")
