Having it in your pocket is more secure in my opinion, at least then you know exactly where it is and what's touching it.
The H2O does not jostle in my backpack. There is a zippered compartment that it fits into and does not jostle. Also, the backpack does not move around unless I move it. When put my backpack down, the H2O is not touching the ground.

In the pocket, you have no control over the Reader. I've been in situations where a Reader in a pocket could get broken, but in my backpack, I'm able to move it as needed to prevent getting bashed. So overall, my backpack is safer than a pocket.
