I suppose I could see that ... MAYBE ... with some .mobi files, but my understanding is no one has gotten the .lit files to work properly.

In the case of .mobi, the errors do seem to be random. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, sometimes they freeze half way through and sometimes it is never a problem. Under these circumstances, being as the problem is very intermittent, it will be quite difficult to track down.

In the case of .lit, I would say it is much more likely the reader than the files...
Why does this surprise you. I couldn't make Astak or BeBooks firmware do anything with some Calibre created FB2 files. They simply wouldn't open. I installed the LBook firmware and those books open without any problem and look really nice. Now, if the menus were just in English instead of Ukrainian...

My LIT files convert very well into ePubs, so I don't worry about trying to read them.
