Motorola finally offering wood backplate option for Moto X

After months of waiting, Motorola today announced the first of its "natural" Moto Maker customization options: bamboo. The company's flagship Moto X can now be ordered with a bamboo rear case, though the option comes at a premium. Picking a natural back color adds $100 to your order total, and Motorola is attaching a "delayed shipping" warning to the Bamboo choice. The natural configurations (bamboo is technically a type of grass) were announced alongside all of the other Moto X colors earlier this year, but have failed to materialize until today.

 

Motorola teased the pending announcement via Google+ and Twitter earlier this week. @evleaks also posted new images of the wood option earlier in December. Other choices are expected to follow in the coming weeks, though a staggered rollout and immediate shipping delays for bamboo suggest Motorola is still having trouble ramping up production.

Doesnt look bad at all.  Not sure how well it will hold up tho.  And price sucks as well.
