What the heck?

OK, I'm reading a MOBI on my Kindle (the one with buttons but no keyboard) and decide to try the file on my new Aura HD and this is typical of what I get a couple of times in a single page:

As soon thade. Asas his door thunked closed.

(Bolding is mine)

On the Kindle and Kindle for PC I get this:

As soon as his door thunked closed.

I convert the file with Calibre and read the EPUB with FBReader and I get the same as with the Kindle, all OK

I copy it to the Kobo and it now plays OK.

Are MOBI files on the Kobo always this crappy? I am very new to Kobe so please forgive my ignorance.



Anyone else have this problem?

My Kobo firmware is: 2.5.2 the latest from 5/7/13
