Everyone seems to be tripping over themselves in excitement about these qualcomm SOCs. Qualcomm has a history of being pretty hostile toward everyone, because of that these have a pretty low chance of being used in any kind of device that will be able to run current software for more than a few years. Meanwhile we have devices based on freescale IMX chips that run GNU/Linux with X11 and whatever else you want (including firefox/iceweasel) right now, they probably just don't have the on board peripherals and connectivity you want.
