Easy peasy.

Under Calibre, click on Preferences.
Look for the Content Server on the left hand tool bar.
Click on the Start Server button, and/or check the Run server automatically on startup.

You can add a username and password if you choose, but so long as you are behind a router, and your local Wifi is running in WPA or WPA2, it is likely unnecessary.

Once that is complete, grab your iPhone/Pad/device and open Stanza. You will need to be connected to the same WiFi network on your Calibre server (a lan port of the wireless router should work fine).

In Stanza:
Click on Get Books, then click on Shared.
You should see a section titles Shared on Local Computer.
Under that you should see server on, or Calibre on [Your Computer Name]. Click on that link and every book you have set up in calibre you should see on your device. If you haven't yet in Calibre, you will want to change the output to ePub and probably do a mass Convert E-books.

Hope that helps.
