My personal view would be dsl connections with VPN enabled DSL routers. Would recommend IPSec enabled routers rather than PPTP. Also remember the router in the main office would need to allow multiple (in your case 2) VPN tunnels. Haven't actually rolled out such a configuration, but have been thinking of such for a couple of weeks.

Just a quick additonal item, would also be wise in getting a larger DSL in the main site.
