Dropbox....without dropbox?

I've been using Jungle Disk for backups since 2007, but didn't realize they had anything comparable to Dropbox (i.e. offline support).  Thanks for the heads up, I'm going to take a closer look.

I've been using the PC-to-PC sync for a while, and am very happy with it.  I actually did a mini-review a while back if you want to look for it.

They mentioned an alternative called SpiderOak which lets you use your own encryption keys:

Cool, thanks.  Here's the mini review for anyone else who's interested.

jaden:
Hah, I just read a comment on the mini-review without realizing I'd written it.  At least I still agree with it. ;D

I remember SpiderOak being mentioned somewhere (most likely here) a few months back and it totally slipped my mind. Any comparisons to Jungle Disk, as far as "drag, drop and forget it"? I really like JD's pricing as well, for a pay-per-GB basis instead of Dropbox/Syncplicity/SpiderOak and their tiered pricing.
