Books downloaded from Baen can be downloaded again in any of their formats, e.g. HTML, so you could add their book's image or one of your own.

Unfortunately if you have a DRMed .PRC with no image, you're out of luck.

This works for .PRC files read with "Mobipocket Reader" on a PC as well as on my Palm TX. Don'y have my Gen 3 yet so I'm not sure about that. Hope this helps some.
Yes, covers added that way show up just fine on the Gen3.
