[Winner Announced] Contest: Win a Rogers (or Fido) Nokia Lumia 625

The entry-level Nokia Lumia 625 is not a 'new' device in the sense of being sold in Canada, as it was launched on TELUS exclusively five months ago. The news on this device, and what brings it back to top of mind, is that Rogers and Fido officially announced that the aforementioned exclusivity is over and they both plan on selling it in their line-ups. Pricing is set at $0 on a 2-year term with both carriers respectively.

Like it? Of course you do. Think it could be a worthy successor to your on-its-last-breath current device? You bet your lucky eyes. Well, courtesy of Nokia Canada, we have one brand spankin' new Nokia Lumia 625 for Rogers (or Fido) to giveaway to one lucky reader. Curious?
