AnemicOak is right on. If they're not DRM'ed files, pull them off with Calibre, convert them to eBook, and you're set with Stanza.

I use calibre on the Mac pretty much exclusively. I bought a couple of books with Sony Connect, but there's been enough stuff out there for me to read that I haven't bought much after I got over the initial novelty.

If you have an Intel-based Mac, Sony Connect works fine in in Windows on vmWare Fusion or Boot Camp, too, of course... except that you have to boot Windows in the first place.
