Have you considered VoIP? I know you said they don't have much of a data
network, but the monthly costs for dedicated Internet connections at each
location (if the don't have them already) could be significant less than a
point-to-point line from the ILEC.  If they don't have the connection,
they would gain one as an added bonus.  Also, the equipment is quite
reasonable (eg. a MultiTech MVP130 has an MSRP of $499, so a pair would be
under $1000).
