The last country report on Internet in Russia was released by the Public Opinion Foundation (FOM) at the end of March 2007. It presents interesting data on number of people online, by regions, in this massive country. By Winter 2006-2007 it seems 28 million Russians were online every month. At that time that was about 25% of the population, versus 72% in Australia or 53% in Spain for the same period.
See below how the Russian 6 month audience of Internet users in the Winter 2006-2007 was split per regions.

There’s a newer report (27.12.2007) about Autumn 2007.
Figures:
Online monthly: 29.4m
Penetration: 26%
So it’s 5% increase in 6 months. Pretty low compared to previous years :)
