So as I said up thread the digitizer is part of the thin glass front on the Nexus 4. Which means that because I've cracked mine the phone works fine (the LCD underneath is all good) but I can't unlock it or control it in any way.
So I figure if I buy one of these and connect it to the phone I'll be able to unlock it and get my stuff out of the phone which is currently trapped in there.
Sound like a plan? Anyone have a better idea? Connecting it to a PC doesn't work because it's locked.

I can buy the digitizer/glass front on eBay for £9:
