Yes and no? I'm not sure there really is a tablet running an open system at the moment. Maybe tablets running the Firefox OS would count but Firefox is just starting to get into mobile OS business. Ubuntu is another option but again, how popular is that platform? An iPad mini is probably a little more open than a Kindle Fire and a Kindle e-ink reader. At least on an iPad you can download e-books from various stores and download various e-reader apps. With an e-ink Kindle you really are stuck with buying from Amazon unless you don't mind dealing with DRM and converting e-books via Calibre.
