Yes. The GTA04 can run plasma-active.
See here: http://blog.the-leviathan.ch/?p=308
and is shipping. See here: http://www.handheld-linux.com/wiki.php?page=GTA04
(yes, this is still under development so it isn't perfect yet).

Therefore you need such a device to install the new motherboard. I hope they get beyond having such a rarefied audience.

True, but you can still buy the Neo Freerunner, and you'll see at the link I posted that you can order a complete phone (not sure how many they have parts for, but > 0).
Yes, I hope they/we get beyond such a narrow audience, but you have to start somewhere, and making cases is *hard* (though there have been small successes even there e.g. http://www.shapeways.com/shops/slyon)
