Portable Dropbox (FileSync)?

Question

Is there a portable version of Dropbox that I can load on to a USB Key?

I need to sync my files between my home desktop, dormitory laptop and on occasion a computer in my university lab.

I need it to load from a USB Key as I cannot install Dropbox on the computer in my univeristy lab.

I would like to avoid manually copying files from my university lab computer to a USB Key and then to my laptop. This process is too laborious and prone to errors (i.e. copying out of date files etc)
