Hi,

I'm interested in using Mobile Org (on 2 devices) & DropBox. 
However, the mobile devices are read-only.

Do I need to do the org-mobile-push and have the files move from 
~/org to ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg, or can I just store all my org files 
in ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg and not worry about syncing, since the mobile 
apps are read-only?

Thanks,

   -k.

For your use case, I think you would still probably want to run
`org-mobile-push' and set up the `org-mobile-directory' variable to
something inside your dropbox shared directory, because org-mobile-push
is responsible for generating the agenda views (agendas.org) and index
(index.org) upon which MobileOrg depends.  Even in a read-only mode,
MobileOrg will complain and not display your entries correctly if it
can't find these.
