SBS in a three office environment?

A quick rundown of the situation here... Three offices, one in VA,
MD, and NC. VA is the headquarters and this is where I want to deploy
the SBS server. Offices are interlinked with a VPN connecting all
offices, although there is no domain controller, just a file server
(linux) at each office.
Previously I used SBS in a two office environment, and I didn't turn
on my documents redirection or exchange because it was just so slow
over the VPN. That was between a PIX 506e at the HQ, and a PIX 501 at
the remote office. HQ had a dual bonded T1 that was shared between
about 15 offices, and remove office had a T1 that was shared with the
VoIP phone system (split about half voice/data).
Here the situation is even worse - Netgear ProSafe VPNs, cable modem
at HQ, DSL at remote offices. Granted I can implement SBS as the DC
and do some group policies and such, but to take full effect as a file
server and exchange server, I can imagine how slow it's going to be
for the remote offices.
So my question is, what is the typical practice in a situation like
this? I can push for full or partial T1's at the locations, but I'm
not sure how quickly that would get approved. How does SBS work in
regards to Linux servers? Just looking for the "best practice".
Thanks...
