Hello, I'm on the list now. I don't know how much this topic is appropriate to this list, so please pardon me in advance. I don't think there is a workaround currently because Ben NanoNote is a microcomputer that have a cryptographic software installed by default and it makes it covered by the current import restrictions in the Russian Federation, even for personal use. The only way to overcome this is to register NanoNote in FSB, which implies some actions from two sides at least: 1) the NanoNote manufacturer (or its representative); 2) the Russian legal person (some business) interested in importing this device to the country. It is also possible to use a help of some broker company to let it deal with FSB. AFAIK most of IT companies are undertaking this weird registration in Russia without a problem. I don't know if Qi Hardware (or maybe Tuxbrain?) is concerned enough to bother, though. (Well, there's another option: to brick the NanoNote by removing its software, so it would have no cryptographic features, and ship it like that to Russia, officially. But I doubt this is reliable because it is a customer who'll need to prove it each time at customs.)
