Air Sharing is a file viewer so it can open quite a few file formats. You can read more about the app here - http://www.avatron.com/ Since Air Sharing also uses a URL to connect and retrieve files my guess is that Stanza should also be able to use the same URL to connect and snag files that it can open. I'll check that out later when I am at home. I use the app called “Air Sharing” to move files onto my iPod Touch. Air Sharing is a file viewer so it can open quite a few file formats.

Since OS X 10.whatever has included a web server (apache) for as long as I can remember, all you have to do is make sure it is enabled in the correct System Preferences pane (Might even be called 'Sharing'). And then just put your files in the correct folder on your Mac and there you go. And since eReader allows you to download eReader formatted e-books from any web server... (And the vagueness of the directions is because my Mac is at home - and I'm not. And I'm fairly sure that somewhere around here are directions on how to do this already.) On a Mac?
