A Mobipocket book contains (or should contain, at least) a navigational item called "other.ms-firstpage", which is a hyperlink to the position in the book at which it should initially open. This is normally set to the start of the book's actual text, and is the point at which the Kindle will open the book.

If this guide item is not present, the book will open to the very first page, which is normally the cover.
