See if you can try one of the new sea to summit comfort plus pads out. While it's not the lightest, it uses a novel design. There are two air chambers and a construction prevents the waterbed effect some air mattresses have. I was skeptical at first, but it works.

I have both the Nemo and Sea to Summit pads, FYI.
