Oh yes, one more thing, to satisfy the higher-ups:
Is there something I could walk into Best Buy and purchase, an Internet
Appliance-type device, to do this, that would be worth the money and not
suck? And also not depend on some subscription service?

Other people can answer better when it comes to securing your calls.
Some stuff I _can_ respond to:
2 - Server.
My asterisk box sports an AMD k6 300 and 384MB of RAM. It's just me,
mind you, but it works wonderfully.
3 - Client-side. What's the best PC-based client-side software to use
to interface with the IP side of Asterisk? Must work in Windows and be
VERY easy to configure.
Try Gizmo (SIP client)
4 - Bandwidth.
Is there a router involved on the employee end that handles QoS
properly (eg. a WRT54G)? If so, don't worry about what the user is
doing too much. If not, ask others how you might implement it. At the
'rents we have a WRT54GL, and I've had multiple bittorrents going
while on a call.
HTH,
CMP
