I do not think that one of the questions asked above was answered.  Specifically, if dropbox does not store any files on my iPhone, then why would it show that it is using 2.4GB of space on the phone?  I have thousands of files in my dropbox that I do not ever need to have access to on my phone.  But there are a few folders that I access all the time.  Is there a way to reduce the amount of space that dropbox files are using on my phone?
