Wow, glad I waited before jumping on the bandwagon.

Hackaday has the scoop :

Yes, its a bit more expensive, double the price?

However you get an STM32F411, which eLua runs already on other variants.
Might not kill the ESP8266, based on current price and existing community involvement, however it has WPA2, is a little faster, with real FCC cert.

    MCU – STMicro
STM32F411CE ARM Cortex M4 micro-controller @ 100 MHz with 512KB flash, 128KB RAM, DSP, and FPUStorage – 2MB SPI flashWi-Fi connectivity
