I'm getting bored with my w800 so i started scouting for a clamshell with good music,cam,memory capabilities and a decent design.
I picked up three after a quick browse - se w710,moto v3x,nokia n71.
Although all three are good but neither seem perfect to me,the w710 has poor internal,v3x has no radio,and the n71 looks plain ugly.
So please if anyone knows of a good flipper which is either available or is 'coming soon'(1month max) plz suggest...

Yes some of the recent nokias have been dissapointing although on paper they look great.
About the n93,well i already have a jasjar and i don't want to carry around 2 big bulks with me everywhere.And even if i want to i'd rather wait and watch on it for some time after it releases coz nokia have been known to release their sets a bit too soon even before they're completely bug-free(ex:N80).

Maybe get the V3x, unless the FM radio is really needed. Otherwise there's not much more on offer at the moment. A Samsung maybe?

I have my eye on the W710 to replace my wifes long-serving and much loved Z600. It has everything we want in a phone except 3G video calling.
I have a V800, the only clamshell I've ever owned but I won't be getting another clam. I find the reception too poor. Neither Z600 or V800 come close to my old K700i for reception. I may go for the W850. 
As compatibility with MPE is a major factor for me, I only choose  phones

I need radio mate! Got an old i-pod and a jasjar atm,so my only source of portable radio is the w800,also don't want 2 exchange an old phone with lesser features on the new one.
Dunno why none of the Razrs have radio,neither the upcoming ones nor the available ones have it.
Speaking of samsung,did some search after you brought it up and found this - Z710
Has anyone tried it?

I read somewhere that the N93 would be around 400 pound.

One issue i see with the z710 from samsung is that there are no external multimedia keys. Strangely they managed to put that on the a990 that share the design but is for that other 3g network:-(
