No, I use MobiPerl's html2mobi, and I "hacked" it to not resize large images. These large images seem to work fine in the desktop reader and in the Cybook (except when paging back, but I'm not sure that is the only reason), so I prefer them, as they have weaker compression artifacts and could be used as "archive". When I publish them here, I also post a version with the images reduced to below 64KB.
