You won't be seeing *native* .LIT support. That's because .LIT requires the *highly-proprietary* litgen.dll in order to display the contents of the .LIT file. Yes, litgen.dll *is* used both in the creation and display of a .LIT file. Now ConvertLit does extract the contents of a .LIT file to HTML, but it doesn't do display. And given that Microsoft is going to want to keep its control of the .LIT format, someone's going to have to do a blackbox clone for Linux systems.
However, I'd be willing to bet that we will see Bookeen work to add support for other ebook formats such as FB2, Plucker and the like as the software is updated.

We will have to wait for a hands on review to find out. HTML is also promising, because Plucker, .FB2, .LIT and .EPUB are all HTML-like.
I would like to have seen a few more actual (non-DRM) e-books formats (FB2, LIT, AportisDoc, ...), but these may be coming later on.
