I got an invite yesterday and I'm trying it out, one thing you could make more clear on the website is for what purposes it does connect to the central server. I had to enter a username/password so it must be doing some communication with your servers, no? Otherwise, how does it find other computers that are connected to the account? And if your service goes away, would I be unable to add new machines to my 'sync network'?

This actually used to be such a common question that we wrote a support article about it :) See http://ae.ro/jnqNyw for more info

(edit: wrong link before, my bad)

Sorry, didn't look hard enough then, thanks :)
