Coda? (Score 1)

I'm slightly surprised noone has suggested Coda http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/; mind you I haven't read all the rest of the comments - this is Slashdot (& I'm at work)! It looks like Coda would be ideal for this sort of disconnected use of files from a file server, and I'm quite looking forward to giving it a spin on the next laptop I buy. Has anyone else got much experiance of using Coda? Does it actually work well, or is the synchronization a PITA, and what about its speed compared with that of NFS or SMB? Thanks for any feedback.
