Transferring books from the eReader to my Mac

My friend sold me her used Sony PRS-505 along with the 124 books she had on it. I love the reader, but there are times when it's just not feasible to tote it around with me, so I'd like the option to pull off some of my favorite titles and put them in Stanza on my iPhone. My trouble is that I have a Mac, so the Sony software is useless to me. I hate to install it virtually, because I'm far more likely to purchase books via Amazon to read on the Kindle iPhone app.

Is there a way to connect my reader and manage the content manually by pulling the files to my computer and converting them with Calibre? I've tried doing this, but the titles come up as nonsense and I just don't have it in me to sort through 124 files to find the 10 or so that I want.

Thanks for your help, everyone
