A Dropbox clone with a better Android client would make me switch immediately.

The Android Dropbox client doesn't even let you download folders at once, only individual files.

ES File Explorer will let you download a folder from Dropbox.

just curious.. what file types do you want on your phone?

I don't have a use case for mobile file syncing for myself.

If you have a decent-length metro commute to work, you could move a couple documents that you wanted to look over into your dropbox folder from your computer at home and open them up from your phone on your way in or during a lunch break.
