If you have the budget, WAN acceleration devices would probably solve this
issue and you could keep all the data at the home office.

We use SBS08 and DFS to share files across sites. You can have multiple
exchange servers with SBS if you want, but with a good VPN link and RDP/HTTP
as a backup you should be fine. We didn't anticipate moving large files
around until I mixed up some folders and put a load of ISO's in the DFS
share. Next morning they were across all the sites like a rash!!

You can have additional servers to host the DFS shares on every site and
with proper use of group policies you should be fine.

DFS wouldn't be a bad way to go, what about centralizing the data and using
TS? Not sure how the cad drawing would respond, but might be something to
look at too.
