I've got the same situation; I've got an HTML ToC, and I don't want a duplicate one at the end. So I tell Calibre not to create a ToC, and it works fine. (This is for creating a MOBI file.)

The problem now is that the various Kindle reader apps (Android, a Kindle 3rd gen) no longer allow the "Go to Table of Contents" option, which is something I *do* want. Is there any way to tell Calibre to use my HTML ToC as the "real" ToC so that my Kindle knows how to find it?

I mean, this *must* be possible in some way; all the "professional" books I've downloaded on Kindle have this (a ToC that's near but not at the very beginning of the book, and the ability to jump to the ToC from the "Go to" menu). How do THEY do it?
