Want Dumb, Verizon, Good Camera w/Flash, don't care about email/web/qwerty/touch

Looking for a dumbphone for Verizon, I don't care how old it is or when it came out.

Things that are important to me are:

*Good camera (at least 2 megapixels) with a flash
*clamshell (or if it is candybar it isn't notorious for unlocking/butt dialing)
*numeric keypad - I text a lot but don't like qwerty, with the numeric keypad I can text without looking at the phone and it is faster for me.

Things I don't need:

*touchscreen - as long as it also has a numeric keypad, it won't bother me if there is also a touchscreen
*email/web - I refuse to use these functions, I'm on the internet/email enough at home without it finding me on my phone. Obviously I don't care if the phone comes with them or not, I'm just saying if it DOESN'T I won't care.

I have looked at:

Samsung FlipShot SCH U900 - concerned about call quality reviews and if the little flip thing will snap right off

LG EnV x9900 - the 10-key on the front made me overlook the qwerty on the inside. Notorious for unlocking but my research indicates firmware updates will fix this. Was ready to give it a go but then read that the speakerphone will NOT work when the phone is CLOSED. WTF?

Anyone have any more suggestions?

Thanks!
 
Perhaps the Motorola RAZR Maxx Ve? It's been discontinued but is a clamshell flip with 2MP camera with flash and autofocus. Search the phonearena.com archive for an article where this phone defeated the likes of the Samsung FlipShot and the LG Dare in a cameraphone comparison. Not sure how much availability this model offers these days...

If you can do without a flash, you may consider the LG VX8370 Clout or the Samsung Convoy...
