From wikipedia:
Microsoft LIT
Format: | Microsoft Reader |
Published as: | .lit |
DRM-protected LIT files are only readable in the proprietary Microsoft Reader program, as the .LIT format, otherwise similar to Microsoft's CHM format, includes Digital Rights Management features. Other third party readers, such as Lexcycle Stanza, can read unprotected LIT files. There are also tools such as Convert Lit, which can convert .lit files to HTML files or OEBPS files.
The Microsoft Reader uses patented ClearType display technology. In Reader navigation works with a keyboard, mouse, stylus, or through electronic bookmarks. The Catalog Library records reader books in a personalized "home page", and books are displayed with ClearType to improve readability. A user can add annotations and notes to any page, create large-print e-books with a single command, or create free-form drawings on the reader pages. A built-in dictionary allows the user to look up words.
So, Stanza on the ipod/ipad/iphone could read it. But it doesn't look like any of the dedicated ereaders will read it without conversion.

Does anyone know if any of the various ereaders available for the iPad can display LIT files or do they have to be converted into pdf's or epub's?
