Is it possible to read .lit files in iPhone?
I have recently got hold of some .lit files and want to upload it to iPhone. But does iPhone read .lit files? If not, then is there any application that will help me do it?

I don't know if they can be read (doubtful) but the obvious solution is converting them with calibre. http://calibre-ebook.com/

.lit = Microsoft. So I'd be quite surprised, if DRMed .lit would be working on any non-Microsoft OS. Non-DRMed can be read on various 3rd party apps, some of them mentioned already.

Hi you will have to convert them in a program like Calibre and then transfer them to Stanza on your iphone.

Or just use calibre as the content server for stanza... It can stay as a .lit just fine, no converting to something else necessary.

Is this calibre free or do I have to buy it?

Calibre is free. There is a Calibre forum here on Mobileread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=166. There are tips for using it and you can post any questions you have there. Calibre is very easy to use and does a great job converting .lit files. Here is the download link:http://calibre-ebook.com/download. The developer is a member of Mobileread too.
