LIT isn't my first choice on the EZ Reader either, but the advantage of the LIT format is that it is very amenable to format shifting. Calibre will do a good job of converting LIT to MOBI or ePub, both of which work well on the EZ Reader with the latest firmware (similar to the firmware that will be on the EZ Reader Pocket Pro). A third choice is FB2 which works very well on the EZ Reader, and which Calibre now supports as an output option. All three (ePub, MOBI, FB2) use different reading software on the Hanlins, so you get to choose which you like best and Calibre will convert for you.
Another option on the EZ Reader (and hopefully soon on the Pocket Pro) is the OpenInkPot firmware. It does not support LIT directly, but I buy a lot of LIT ebooks and convert them to OEB format using ConvertLIT and these work well under OpenInkPot. Or you can again use Calibre to convert the DRM-free LIT to ePub or MOBI or FB2 - all supported under OpenInkPot (FB2 even has two readers to choose from, FBReader and CoolReader).
