Its so easy. No need to configure settings on iTouch/iPhone Stanza or PC Stanza - just enable sharing and its ready to transfer. Stanza also handles LIT to ePub conversions, Word to ePub with no problems; while on the other hand Calibre threw up an error and wouldn't recognise the source filetype?!!
I love Stanza on the iPhone, but Calibre handles conversions more accurately and with much better retention of formatting than Stanza Desktop, which strips just about everything except basic text layout (as Lexcycle itself admits-they are quite upfront on their site about the current limitations of the Desktop versions, and have been focusing on the iPhone/Touch versions...they even recommend Calibre if you want better conversion options).
