locking individual phone numbers

hi all

is there a utility (or maybe someone could make one 😊 ) where certain phone numbers on your contacts have a lock attached to it(maybe password protected), so to stop you accidentally calling that person by mistake, or even stopping someone calling a particular number from your phone (err, maybe a number you dont want your girlfriend to call to see who will answer..etc) ...but the main thing is sometimes when my phone is not key locked and i am doing something on the p800, there have been times when at 3am i have accidentally called someone and fluffed around trying to hang up...for some numbers like close familly it is not too bad, just tell them to go back to sleep...but accidentally calling your boss, or an old flame whos number still happens to be on your phone (just in case!!) can cause probs!!

any ideas?

usually there is a place called SIM LOCK inside the SIM, where u have to insert your PIN# to access or delete these numbers, anyway, I suggest you keep the kepad locked all the time to avoid such problems!!
