Typically, the ePubs will include both files. When I add the cover, I don't usually delete the old one. So there will be a file called cover.jpeg and one called cover.jpg. Or in the case of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, there's a file called cover.jpg and a file called 0008.jpg.

Anyway, I did check one of the ePubs I sent to the Nook with a cover problem. The ePub displays the correct cover. But in the library and home screen, the Nook displays the original cover.

Since the Sony doesn't have thumbnails, I can no longer confirm that it displays the correct cover.

I did drag and drop the ePub to my Kobo and it displayed the correct cover in the thumbnail.

I suspect that either Doitsu is right, as I did notice the ePub metadata file still points to the original cover, or Tex2002ans is right and Calibre is sending some sort of mixed signal.
