I guess my question is, how likely is it that Wind will have a promotion over the next couple months that will give me a plan that is enough better than Rogers that I can switch? I don't travel much, so Winds limited zones are not an issue for me, but the $40 plan they currently offer really isn't good enough for me to get rid of Rogers, since it only saves me about $10 a month. Especially considering that the FlexTab seems much better than the WindTab, plus my initial outlay on the device will be less on Rogers.

I'd say that it's almost granted that there'll be some sort of holiday promotion in the coming months. The Christmas season has always been one of the peak times for activations.
