I don't believe there's a 2000-item hard limit per directory in the FAT32 specifications. More likely, once there's more than a specific number of items in a folder, then the Kindle indexer fails or runs into some issue that may cause the Kindle to crash.

I have a folder (on FAT32 partition) with 6000+ items on one of my Windows XP VMs. That said, even on a Core i7 with 2GB RAM, listing the contents of that folder takes a long, long time. That many files in a single directory will probably just crash the Kindle outright (and if we're lucky, without causing corruption).

Here's another template if you still have too many authors in a single folder:
Code:
{tags}/{author_sort:.1}/{authors}/{series}/{title}
