hi,
do you guys know where could I find a sphere that is Tesselated in equal sized quads?

To the best of my knowledge equal sized planar quads are not a possible option to create a half way decent sphere.

Make a cube, make it editable, subdivide it once with hypernurbs option turned on and put the result into a HyperNURBS object. Like Björn said it's not a perfect sphere, but it's close-ish.

Mathematically impossible. Use the workaround described by ChrisC.

You also can add a sphere, type set to Hexahedron and Segments to 8.
This wil give the same object as an HN subdivided cube.

Peace,

You might also toss a subdivided cube into a Spherify deformer set at 100%, then do a Current State to Object...
