It seems to skip the cover and go to the first text page. A minor but annoying problem. I'm usually converting (using Calibre only) from epub or lit/rtf to MOBI. Thanks for any help you can lend.
This seems to happen in the Kindle4PC application too. Often to see the cover in that app you must click previous or back from the page it defaults to.

On my Sony 505 the cover is always the first page I see.
