@dragosani,
It is true that you can turn off the security restriction on side-loading on the Kindle, but the question is how many Educational IT groups would be keen on opening up their tablets to all the malware abounding on the Android platform let alone the support headache of anything and everything being installed by students?
Most Education IT teams I know of have breathed a sigh of relief over the parental controls and curated apps of the iOS platform so I think the last thing they'd want to do is turn off security settings on a platform that is already the number 1 mobile malware target in the world. (last quarter 100% of all new mobile malware discovered targeted Android)
