Is there a way to WIRELESSLY transfer files from computer to desire?
My computer doesnt have blutooth but i think there must be some app out there where i can just browse my computers data over wifi and transfer them to my phone over wifi? is this possible? and what app would i need?

There are apps that let you do that provided both phone and PC are on the same Wifi networks, but I can't remember one off hand. Of course, there's also SwiFTP.
I used dropbox anyway so I rate it as a decent service.Not installed the app. Funny really when I was considering an IPhone this would have been one of the only ways to use it as a storage device.
If you're also already using Astro, you can now do this with the Astro SMB plugin - just create a share on the PC and you can transfer files between it and the phone (I did this over the weekend to get some files onto my GF's netbook which doesn't have BT and I didn't have my cable handy).
Device(s): HTC One X, Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I'm sorry: it's still not happening. I click on LAN, and all it says is 'Add a server by Menu>New>Server'. I've tried New>Scan, it scans, but nothing happens. I've got a folder on my PC which I've shared, and I've checked Permissions, and it's for everyone. My router reecognises both my PC and the Desire.

Get the IP address of your computer and enter that into the server details.
I use Remote Desktop (free from the Market Place), after installing just switch on your wireless and it finds your router and gives you an IP Address to enter into your browser along with a 4 character access key.
You are then looking at your phone from your browser in a pretty standard format.
Very neat. My mate has an iPhone and this one application has him so envious
Awesome Drop is definitely the best for this, really easy and simple to use, nothing complicated but dropbox is equally good, if not the best for this!
