At first glance, it seems pretty much the same as DropBox, with added links to any Google Docs documents you may have. 5GB of storage free, $2.49 for 25GB. I believe there's no mobile access yet, but they claim that's coming. You gotta feel for the DropBox guys.
That's a good summary. I've signed up but I haven't actually put any files on it yet. There's an Android app though, so there's mobile access that way.
I now have Dropbox, SugarSync, and Drive (and iCloud for the iPad stuff.) Discounting iCloud, the biggest difference I can see is that SugarSync lets you sync any folder, while Dropbox and Drive only work with their "special" folder. The difference doesn't bother me much. Drive seems very similar to Dropbox.
I looked into Box too, a couple of times, because they were offering such gigantic amounts of free space, but each time I decided against it. It's pretty much a one-way affair with Box. You can put stuff in but it's hard to get out. There's no auto-sync unless you subscribe and pay a fee. Box has some advantages for teams working with files, but for individuals it didn't seem useful.
