The security issues are kind of the same, no matter what type of device you're talking about, Palm or Pocket PC. A power-on password can be used, but there are also plenty of encryption apps out there that will protect data if someone gets past the power-on.
And, to date, I am not aware of any viruses that have infected a Pocket PC.
Finally, yes, there are differences in the functionalities between desktop and Pocket PC versions of Word . If you need full-functioned applications that can support things like outlining, tables, etc. one third-party app you could look at is Text Maker. Pocket Excel is pretty powerful and supports nearly all the functions. It won't do graphs, though.
Having said all this, though, I am convinced that the Pocket PC still affords a lot more functionality and versatility than any Palm device.
