Does it really "sync" your Dropbox folder though? My understanding is that it mounts the target service as a network volume. This means you need a network connection to the target service in order to access the files stored there.
One of the major benefits of Dropbox is that the files really are sync'd to your local drive. If you're offline, you can still get to the files. Changes are sync'd later when the network becomes available.
