Hi,
The ASA doesn't support DMVPN so if that's a hard requirement at the
HQ you need to get an IOS box. Should you choose the ASA and if the
G.SHDSL circuit requires termination (no managed CPE from the
provider) you would additionally need the 1803 you mentioned or
another with a WIC. The 1800 series routers will be able to encrypt
all traffic on the line (and then some). Note that the fixed 1800
series routers have a maximum of 50 supported IPSec tunnels while the
non-fixed ones (1841, 1861) have higher.
The IOS box will do most of the things the ASA would - and you haven't
indicated any ASA specifics - so from a technology management
standpoint it might be wise to invest into one platform instead of two.

I'm currently working on a topology to link a number of retail units
together back to head-office that'll support VoIP, email (pop3) and
EPOS
related traffic - basically the traffic requirements per store will
be very
low. However, I expect there to eventually be 60-80 stores.
I'm going to put 1801w routers in each store, as they're perfectly
taylored
to the needs of a small-ish Retail location, and run DMVPN to handle
the
spoke to spoke VoIP traffic.. What I'm still trying to decide on is
what to
put at the head-office hub end. I need something to concentrate the
VPN
tunnels, and to terminate a SDSL line and so am thinking either a
ASA 5510
with a 1803 router, or a just a 2800 series router. At present we've
got
something to terminate "road-warrior" clients and so that isn't a
consideration.
Just interested in various options/comments or any pointers anyone can
offer..
