User Reviews

  • Looks very interesting but it boots up in Russian with a button marked 'en', clicking this brings up a Russian flag, clicking again brings up a US flag but the actual langue on the display never varies from Russian with the odd word in English. A pity as I'd liked to have a play with it! Electron.
