Post device for bad back

Hello Everyone,

I joined the forum today and this seems like the right place to ask the following question

I have a severe problem with my back. So I cant hold heavy books and I also
cant maintain my neck in a non neutral position for long. As I anyway get stressed working in front of my computer, I didnt want to stress my back/neck further and so I had given up on reading.

But I love to read and so I am considering multiple of options.

I could buy a levo book holder and continue to buy paper books. But I instead
thought of buying a ebook reader which is light.

I am thinking of buying a sony reader prs 700. I will get it shipped to India through some contacts I have or whenever I visit the US. But I noticed that it has no accessories, like a holder to help people with ergonomic problems.

A simple book light holder kind of thing which will work with ebook reader would be great. Something like a gorillapad for ebook readers.

Is there anyone here who has tried these things, either on a sony reader or iphone or itouch.

regards
