Oh, those Russians. Sistema, a mobile operator over in Putin Country, just released the first GLONASS/GPS phone in the country. GLONASS is Russia’s GPS solution that doesn’t depend on America’s capitalist satellites.

The phone will be “just like the iPhone 4″ and cost about $240 when it comes out in March.
