    My Nexus 4: Ebony edition!

    After my N4's back glass cracked, I decided to replace it with ebony. After a couple of weeks and LOTS of work with a dremel, a guitar headplate, and some superglue, my baby is ready to be used again.

    Why?

    I just saw the post for the official announcement on phandroid... but why? This phone seems like it would've been popular two or three years ago, but it seems that the days of landscape clamshells are gone*. Without some pretty incredible specs, I honestly don't see it doing well. Just MO...
