You can't do much of anything with PDFs, locked ones especially I'm afraid.

An EB1150 is a bit large for a pocket, but yeah, it should probably be kept off playgrounds.
Locked PDF's cannot be read on any standalone Reader, not just the EB1150. The unit is pretty big to be placed in a pocket but this is what helps the reading experience since the page is about the size of a paperback book as opposed to a shirt pocket sized reader. The eb1150 does have an armored covering and the shape helps the user to hold firmly on to the device. While it can be broken it is unlikely to be dropped accidentally by slipping out of your hand. I suppose a case could be obtained to help protect the screen from damage in a backpack. I haven't looked for one but otterbox makes some very good rugged cases.

Edit: I don't see a proper size box from otterbox but the Seahorse SX-120 would seem to be ok.
