They didn't really leave Mozilla, they formed MZLA Technologies Corporations which is a subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation. Nonetheless, I agree that things have been drastically improving since the change.

I was strongly considering buying this, but instead ordered the Hisense A7 off of Aliexpress. The main differences is the the A7 is a bit larger than the Palma and also has a headphone jack. It does get some service in the US, but it's
