Nexus 7 arrives in Japan, better late than never

Well, it took a while, but Google has finally launched the Nexus 7 in Japan. The tablet made its state-side debut in [July](http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/17/nexus-7-pre-orders-start-shipping-in-uk-and-canada/), but it took almost three months for it to cross the Pacific and land in the east Asian nation. Pricing is a little higher than what we've seen everywhere else, with the 16GB model selling for ¥19,800, or about $312. It makes a perfect companion for the recently updated [Play Books](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/24/google-play-books-app-japan-translation-place/) app that also just made its debut in the Land of the Rising Sun.
