Using WCF RIA services. This allows you to access your Data using RIA Service Layer that can also have some business logic in it. For more details visit this article on RIA:

I guess it is difficult to define "best". I think is more a personal preference. I have used a webservice and linq2Sql in the past. I have used this (http://www.silverlightshow.net/items/Silverlight-2-Simple-Editing-of-Web-Service-Data-in-a-DataGrid.aspx) tutorial as a base.
