I've only ever really seen people call devices that are just touchscreens and a home button tablets. I've certainly never seen someone refer to the GBA, Atari Lynx, or Game Gear as "tablets" or "tablet-like'" devices.
When I was talking about it being "hackable," I was referring SPECIFICALLY to a tablet with an Android OS. If it ran a proprietary OS, that would not even be an issue I'd bring up (though even the 3DS's security has proven not to be bullet proof, it's nothing compared to the free-for-all that is Android).
On the Kindle, though...that thing may be more secure, but it's OS is pretty crappy. It's slow and glitchy, and from what I've heard the new models have yet to fix that. The only great tablet I've ever used is the iPad, which doesn't have an ounce of Android in it. I hope that if Nintendo does do what you suggest (which would certainly make sense when it comes to getting lots of apps from developers) that they do a much better job of it.
