Anne,

Unfortunately DRM'd MobiPocket books don't have an iPhone application that
reads them natively. The two options you have are converting these files
for use on the iPhone Kindle app by using
KindleFix<http://skochinsky.googlepages.com/azw-0.2.zip>and
Mobi2Mobi <http://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Mobi2Mobi_GUI_Vista/XP> or
the second option would be to remove the DRM from the books all together.

The downside to the first option is that after messing around with the files
you still have to use the Kindle application. The downside to the second
option is that you legally can't do that so I'm not endorsing that method.

A great forum for all things ebooks is http://www.mobileread.com.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
