Im fairly new to emacs and mobileorg, so im no expert here but...
I believe Mobile org will be using your dropbox folder as its single
point of contact.
For example your workflow would be:
- Create/edit notes/todo's on your phone
- sync the app (which should save to dropbox)
- Open emacs on your pc, issue org-mobile-pull
- This should add your edits to your org files on your pc

For the other direction:
- Edit org files on your pc, issue org-mobile-push
- sync on the app should import your edits into the app

Im assuming you have a dropbox daemon taking care of the syncing in this
process.

This should be the same no matter how many pc's/emacs you use.
Does this help answer your question?

Cheers,
Dean
