They've cloned the firmware and changed the title banner on it, cloned the Web IDE and changed the text on that too, and even cloned the module repo.
Pretty frustrating really, as if they wanted a Russian language version they could have just contributed to the proper Web IDE and helped everyone.
Their list of modules as http://js.amperka.ru/modules actually just forwards to http://espruino.com/modules and they've left the compiler linking to espruino.com so it uses my processing power too :(
To be fair to them they have given credit and left the donation links in. Overall, not great though - especially given this is the first I've heard of it.
Please don't support them, and instead get official Espruino boards.
If you do buy this board and have problems, contact http://amperka.ru/. I won't be providing any support for users of their boards
