Google has just updated the list of Chromebooks that can access the Play Store and Android Apps. This is by far the largest update to the list to date and is a very promising sign that the full roll-out could be very soon.
The only device to gain newly-found support in the Stable channel appears to be the Samsung Chromebook Plus. The big news is the seventeen devices that have added the Play Store in the Beta Channel. If this list is accurate, these Chromebooks should be able to run Android Apps in Beta without any special tweaks.
