Ubuntu One is the closest that you'll find, I think.

Sparkleshare has been mentioned again this time around.  I tried it earlier this year and found it lacking.  Not because it is unfinished.  Because it isn't a sync platform.  It's a collaboration platform.

SpiderOak could get there some day.  I for one am not holding my breath.

If you don't mind manual sync then try Unison.  Open source, stable, mature, reliable.
