It seems clear enough. Quote from the article:
What about tablets? No dice. The Librarian "found significant merit to the opposition’s concerns that this aspect of the proposed class was broad and ill-defined, as a wide range of devices might be considered 'tablets,' notwithstanding the significant distinctions among them in terms of the way they operate, their intended purposes, and the nature of the applications they can accommodate. For example, an e-book reading device might be considered a 'tablet,' as might a handheld video game device or a laptop computer."
Read this not as "smartphones yes but tablets no" but as "smartphones yes but kindle no".

Like man this stuffs hard (we can't do it logically and satisfy industry) lets just not bother.
