You would then have to manually copy the MOBI to your BB, or perhaps use Calibre's save to disk option (across USB), or use Calibre's web server option to get to them via the web.
Thanks wallcraft. I thought this was obvious so I not even mentioned that of course you can convert txt files with mobi creator (free at mobipocket.com) or by importing them directly into Mobi Reader (just drag and drop) Sorry

As a little nota bene: Better convert to html first before turning to Mobi. That way files will be lots better looking.
