My experience is that Jetty (http://www.mortbay.org/jetty/) tends to be a bit more lightweight than tomcat, and also a LOT easier to embed (it's basically just a JAR file).
Or you could try this: http://tjws.sourceforge.net/ Haven't tried it myself, but looks like it's designed to be lightweight. Or.. maybe even better: http://code.google.com/p/i-jetty/ In either case it's likely to be: A) A battery killer due to much heavier resource usage than "normal" mobile apps B) Could be a performance problem if the container itself is allocating a lot of objects, and thus causing the GC to kick in.
