Box.com (not to be confused with Dropbox) seems to do all the sync

Based on the terms of service, it seems that google can read my uploaded
content to build a better profile for ads. Does anyone know if I'm

Do you know whether they have fixed their security issues they've been having?

That's one of the important items on my list as to weather to use them or
not. My current option is a memory stick but I've been admonished about
that.

If you really want it to be secure, crypt the data before you feed it to
DropBox. Then their security problems don't really matter.

The one real cool use of DropBox I've seen is what a guy I know does
for web development. He has his own home based web server, where his
inetpub folder is aliased to dropbox (not sure of the proper
terminology here). Then he can access the code anywhere on his iPad

I've got a notes directory on my computer where I have day notes, client
notes, thoughts, etc. all in text docs. I sync it with the stick so if the
