Text Lock and discreet voicemail - types of phone

Hi, i'm looking for a new mobile. I currently have a wee 3 skypephone which is falling apart and i'd get another the same but they stopped making this model. The features i'd like in a new phone that I have with this one are
1) text lock - i have to key in a 4 digit code to access texts

2) don't know what this feature's called, but I can leave a voicemail via my voicemail centre and the other person's phone doesn't ring , they just get a text saying the VM is there - sounds daft maybe , but great for leaving messages when I know hubby/daughter won't be able to talk at work and school.Not sure if this is just a 3 network feature.

I have asked in some of the phone shops, but not had any success.

Many thanks in advance

Lorna
