If you must have your secret documents on a device. Your best bet would probably be to hide them using something like steganography or a TrueCrypt hidden volume.
yep, one can go very far with security options, even more things like:
option to take dynamic password (to be generated by an ios/android app on phone) Which to be carried in pockets always, when not holding the device. This phone can be fingerprint sensitive, and can act on fake user accordingly. (A simple model of doing this is to provide a same pre-entered master static password for both slate and phone, which will derive the common checksum for dynamic passoword) And this app can be easily reseted so other people can no longer to use it to generate valid passwords. This app may also be resetted wirelessly, or remotely, in case the device holder is being tortured (or possilbly being tortured). The master password maybe kept secret from the device holders, and only avaliable for higher security officials, so, if he gets beat up, he cant tell the master password also.

Another security option will be like to be able to cleanly wipeout files (which normal simple deletes will left over recoverable files)
