What are your/his experiences with your two Entourage readers? Does he get along better with the eink or with the tablet side? Is reading on the bigger reader more convenient for him or on the Pocket Edge? Have you tried out some reading apps on the tablet side? I think, fbreader for instance lets you read in night mode.

For the thickness: this is device independent. If he's reading books in epub format you can change it in the css file. Maybe it is worth that you investigate a little bit in this direction, choosing a different font and font style may make a great difference.

My apologizes for my next proposal, I really don't want to give another parent "a good advice", but maybe you can help your son a little bit by securing that he doesn't read too much "in one session", but makes enough breaks and spends more time playing in the open air.
