Theoretically, yes there is a limit to the number of PF's you can have.
I've seen many thousands (tens of thousands for that matter) of PF's and it
*works*. The key to keeping it usable is organization. You have to keep it
organized and stay on top of it. One of the best things you can do is limit
the number of top level folders you have since it's harder to prevent users
from creating them like they do files :) Replication limitations and common
sense are your best guides.
Conflict resolution kicks in. The last one usually wins, but if the
conflict occurs, the owner(s) of the folder gets a conflict notice.
You may want to use files or even sharepoint if document conflicts are a
potential issue.

Is there a limit to the number of public folders or the amount of data that
can be stored in Public Folders - (other than physical limitations of hard
drive, etc)
What happens when someone wants to edit a document that is in a public
folder - or two people try to edit at different times - then synchronize
Outlook - do they overwrite what the other person may have put in?
