Rogers has been taking pre-orders for both the Nokia Lumia 920 and HTC Windows Phone 8X handsets since mid-October, but there was no word on precise ship dates. Finally, Microsoft Canada has announced on its Facebook account that Rogers will start selling both these windows phones beginning November 12th.
