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.
