Lightweight travel cots?

Anyone got any good recommendations for a lightweight travel cot for a baby over 6 months (other than that clever inflatable thingy?)Hoping it will be so lightweight I could go on the train with it.

Thanks
Laura

We have one from nomad that is more like a little tent with a self inflatable mattress but only weighs 2.5kg.

Thanks very much for the recommendation - found it on the web and sounds impressive. Two questions: is a self inflatable mattress as easy as it sounds, and do you have to use the nomad sleeping bag with, or could you use a cot sheet and grobag?

We blow up the mattress a little more than the self inflating but it is pretty effortless. Agree with Galaxy about the fiddle but we have managed to get it back in the bag OK.
The guy at Mountain Buggy told us the ideal is a sheet over a sheepskin and then any type of sleeping bag so grobag would be fine.
DD will be just on a sheet then grobag.
