Rogers Wireless and its prepaid arm Fido have started accepting orders for the LG Optimus L7, which if you recall, is the best device from LG’s recently unveiled L series of phones.

Rogers is asking a single cent for the phone as long as you put your signature on a new 3-year contract, while Fido will give the device completely free with “select 3-year Fido Agreements.” Don’t want to sign a contract? No problem – Rogers will take you $274.99 for the Optimus L7, while Fido asks $300. Not sure why there’s a price difference, but hey – these two gotta differ somehow, right?

Anyway, specs wise LG’s baby comes with a 4.3-inch WVGA screen, HSDPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, 5-megapixel rear camera, 1GHz single-core processor, GPS, Bluetooth, 512MB of RAM, 4GB of built-in storage, while Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is running the show. All in all, it’s a pretty solid mid-ranger, offering decent value for the money…
