This is of course great... but is there actually some consumer hardware or affordable development board that can use these? I have a Nexus4 which in theory could run these, but I am not aware of any way to use them with Ubuntu Touch or any other available OS...

Not gonna happen. Raspberry Pi uses Broadcom hardware only becase it's founder is employee of Broadcom.
