The e-ink devices are what I would consider light on weight, but of course this is a relative judgement - I obviously don't know what weight you can bear for extended periods of time. However, there are cheapish products that will hold the device, be it on a table in front of you, or on your reclined chest (eg. if you read in bed), that may help here. The one that I've recently seen in a couple of stores looks like a miniature bean-bag (the "furniture" variety) that you can rest your book on. They have a small, plastic flap you can draw tighter with a draw-string to the bottom of a book/device to hold it firmly. There are undoubtedly other varieties, and this may cover that weight issue, should you consider the devices too weighty.
