Yes, a while ago my nephew bought a Yotaphone: Android smartphone on the front and an e-reader on the back. Cool idea and it's actually a decent phone.
One thing Russia is trying to do is get it's aviation industry to kick-on, primarily to reduce their reliance on Airbus and Boeing to service their domestic airlines.
They're now exporting some Sukhoi Superjets (similar to the A31xx/A32xx family) but that's more of a testing-the-waters exercise than anything. Their aviation industry is in such a state that it'll be decades before they can produce enough aircraft to even come close to being a viable competitor to the big boys.
