A recently modified bit of code in Google Pack was picked apart by blogger Brian Ussery, who found the following text:

Online file backup and storage… GDrive provides reliable storage for all of your files, including photos, music and documents… GDrive allows you to access your files from anywhere, anytime, and from any device – be it from your desktop, web browser or cellular phone.

Another blogger did some more digging and found that the project is code-named Platypus and currently has the following icon: gdrive

Yeah, that’s pretty tiny. Expect to hear a little more about this project now that the seal’s broken.
