I don't use Dropbox because I have private online storage, but since I can download from the default browser, I don't see why downloading from dropbox would be any different from downloading from other sites with PDFs.
I have not tried uploading anything from the default browser, but I can try. Note that you can't just upload pdfs (if you intend to upload markups) because you'd be editing a pdf and taking a snapshot (.gif or .png). So it would be uploading those graphic files from the Eee Note. Since the Evernote upload is built in, that's a lot simpler than trying to navigate the browser of a website where you'd upload, then trying to get the browser to recognize the Eee Note's file system to find the file in question (which won't be intuitively named, necessarily.) So I have my doubts about browser uploading, but I'll see what happens when I do. The Evernote works really well, so I'm sure I would just stick with that.

Yup, I make math notes for students, so I use colour extensively. That's why I say for creation, the Edge or a tablet PC is better. But at least in "Notes" you can alter the shades of black/grey when you write, and the pen thickness/style, so you can make some differentiations that way. The Edge is much better suited to that, though; even though the device itself only displays in black and white on the e-ink side, you can choose different colours for pen strokes and export simply to PDF. The resulting files are just fine.
