I've done my own conversions and here are the resulting screen shots.

The first one is the ePub in ADE. The second is a Calibre conversion to AZW3 (combination KF8/Mobi) viewed in the latest Kindle for PC. The third is a Kindlegen conversion and viewed in Kindle Previewer.

The Kindlegen version botched the dropcap and while Calibre also did not get it correct, at least it's not silly looking.
