LiteCoin was actually designed to be hard to mine on the GPU, due to the memory requirements of the algorithm. Of course, people are smart and managed to figure this out. Eventually, somebody /might/ be able to come up with dedicated hardware to mine LTC, but it's likely to be much more expensive and difficult to produce than the BTC ASIC hardware, and the value of LTC is nothing like high enough to make that a profitable thing to be trying to do at this stage.

This is what I've found at the moment. I've got 3 7970s running right now, and I find that if I switch to Litecoin I've made about the same as I would have in BTC in the same time period if I sell it.

I have a BFL pre-order from March this year, so if/when that arrives, I'll probably switch my GPUs to Litecoin to keep things a bit more diverse.
