HTH,

Kindle books (which I can read in my mobipocket reader on a Palm device) do need these kinds of TOCs, but Calibre automatically generates (a rather good-looking) one when I convert from ePUB to MOBI by using the ePUB's built in TOC (if it has one).

BY the way, to the OP - the latest version of Calibre (0.7.27) has a feature to convert TO html (from anything). If you want to get a basic TOC, you might just steal the main framework from the generated html and just change some links programmatically (or by hand).
