I suspect I could - this is just like running the conversion of ereader to html, then rebulding the book from there (for which I use MobiPocket Creator). Is there any formatting/TOC/picture difference between LIT and ereader? And I assume that LIT is the obsolete microsoft Reader format, right? The one I've religiously avoided in order to not be saddled with that reader ever again.

As for Calibre - is this the one that all the download pages are in Russian? I've never managed to get it installed (I dislike random clicking on pages where I can't read anything). Would Calibre read in the epub format and kick out Mobi? How does it compare to using MobiCreator (limitations and all, I'm used to it)?
