Understandably, both vendors presume that their product will be consumed with DRM intact, so comparing the conversion of non-DRMd epubs or PDF (both of which can be read on Kobos without conversion) with De-DRMing and converting Kindle proprietary formats seems a bit like comparing apples and oranges. You can't send DRM protected content to your Kindle for conversion, can you?

No you can't. I've attached what Amazon says you can email them for conversion support. My main point is that Amazon performs some Calibre type functions but Kobo requires a computer - granted both companies have some differences in native formats.
