PRS-600 and PRS-900 have insane font sizes, XXL and such. Great for elderly. My father can read my 600 perfectly fine for hours on end, and did most of today... He wanted to use it to read an ebook a colleague had sent him.

My father is competent enough to plug it in, so the 3G isn't an issue for him.
The nook wifi would probably be a good option, what with its price. Consider demoing it, and the sony, at your local bestbuy/barnes and noble.

The 600 isn't very heavy at all, though I've never bothered to weigh it.
