eP, where does Calibre generate covers at 330 x 500? In general, if you import a large cover image into Calibre for a particular book, it will not resize that image. The large resolution remains intact inside the ePub.
Or, are you talking about when Calibre transfers epubs over to the Sony reader? I think it is the Sony reader that downsizes covers. But not within the epub. If you put a large resolution image inside an epub, the reader leaves it at a large enough resolution to look good when you are reading the book. What it does for its own internal thumbnail purposes is another matter. The reader does some downsizing and the images are pixelated if you try to use them as a screensaver. But in the reading mode, the covers for the book can be full screen and high resolution without pixelation.
