@Hitch, I don't think anyone disbelieves you, I think the OP is just getting a bit confused between the discussion of formatting vs. DRM.
@eggheadbooks1, what you're seeing in the Kindle Previewer is exactly what you'll see on a real Kindle (note that's not true of KindleforPC/KindleforMac). People use Calibre generated mobis all the time on real Kindles, and many have noted the same thing you noted in your testing, namely that Calibre generally does a more accurate conversion from epub to mobi than Amazon's own tools. AZW and Mobi are exactly the same to the best of my knowledge, Amazon just changes the extension, and the DRM is very slightly changed over mobipocket's original DRM scheme. If you're not planning on publishing to Amazon you don't need to worry about the rest of the discussion.
