As far as how secure the data is, I am not certain. Obviously, dropbox has had issues on that front, but I do not plan on having sensitive data in my dropbox or on evernote. Just work stuff, and if anybody has the desire to sift through my notes written about boring academic papers, then I think they have more to worry about than I do.

I've taken up using Evernote since you posted this question earlier and I was wondering about data limits. Thanks for the info. In addition, I agree that you really shouldn't keep any sensitive data on any of these cloud services. I too will end up using it for "boring papers" as well as Images I snap from the textbooks I'm reading on the edge. The data attachment limitations on the free version are a drag, but I'm in the same boat as you, I want to mess around with it some more before I make any money commitments.
[edit] Actually, $45 a year or $5.00 a month is a little too steep for me, I guess I'll just attach the files from my laptop.
