How to get an HD6x00 IGP device?

Is there any way to get early access to HD6000 IGP devices?

I see there is a NUC forthcoming but I'd prefer not to wait to port my code.

This one is shipping in March https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/nuc/nuc-kit-nuc5i5ryk.html, but you probably already know that. 

I am trying to get a hold of one myself, but no luck so far: even internally, I've seen a lot of HD5500s, but no HD6000.

Do you have OpenCL 2.0 specific code that you want to port? Otherwise, 4th gen chip w/ HD5200 should be very close in performance.

Yes, I just saw a review for the NUC this morning.  Can't wait to try out those 48 EUs.

I've been porting a large codebase from CUDA so Broadwell's OpenCL 2.0 support as well as the improved integer math throughput are interesting to me.

FYI, the HD 6000 NUCs are in stock all over the USA.  Just picked one up.

Mine arrived and it was manufactured on Feb. 7th, 2015:
