NASA’s Curiosity Rover and its recent lunar landing has sparked a whole new era of, well…. curiosity! What better way to indulge that curiosity than with Google’s amazing Nexus 7 tablet? With nothing more than a Nexus 7 and a little imagination, your little one will be blasting off for space exploration and reminding us that everything starts with a dream.

Semi-good news for anyone living in Germany, Spain, or France. The Google Nexus 7 is now available to you via the Google Play Store and can be had for €199 for the 8GB model and €249 for the 16GB. This is slightly above U.S. pricing, which isn’t uncommon for the European market, but at least they will be able to enjoy a wealth of content and features, as well as Jelly Bean. Unfortunately, Google Music and Google Magazines is still unavailable.

If at any point you find the font size on your device to be too small or too big, you can head on into Settings > Display > Font size and pick from Small, Normal, Large, or Huge. Now this won’t affect every bit of text you see, so if you’re in an app that has small text, you can always try checking to see if they have their own settings.
