Yes, but the Dropbox .deb requires nautilus, which is only installed
with vanilla Ubuntu. Technically Dropbox is not the same as mounting a
remote file system, you have a real local copy even if you have no web
access.

Isn't there a .deb package for it on the dropbox homepage? Only for
Gutsy to Karmic, but I guess the Karmic version should work on Lucid
as well.
If I understood right, what dropbox does is mount the online folder
as a local synchronized folder, so any file manager should work.
(Personally, I think this is just reinventing the wheel, there
already was ftp)
I think Dropbox should implement an alternative interface as an FTP
server; this way you wouldn't need to install anything on most OS
and distros.

Nope, but I'll probably give it a try later (possibly tomorrow)
because I'm fairly interested as well.

In 2008, the world created 31 billion tonnes of CO2 and the level of CO2
in the atmosphere rose by 2 ppm, or 16 billion tonnes. Much of the
remaining 14 billion tonnes went into making the oceans more acidic. We
are changing our environment too quickly and we are now 12% over the
safe threshold of 350 ppm.
