Mobipocket's developer documentation suggested that 600x800 was optimal, but apparently not then...

That's really weird... The chapter headers are created with a 'height="5em"' attribute, which in Mobipocket speak should produce a top margin of only 5 or so lines (Mobi seems to be quite fuzzy on what an "em" means). Is this happening on the Cybook etc too?

Eee -- that bad? There actually isn't any CSS in the mobibook -- just Mobipocket-extended HTML 3.2. If FBReader isn't providing formatting for this then it isn't providing formatting for any HTML content. Nothing at all I can really do there.
