I'm looking for a feature in a phone that will help me with the
following:

My wife and I have a infant child and sometimes when I call her she
has the baby in her arms and can't get to the phone.  I'd like to have
a speaker phone that she could answer without going over to the
device.  If it could be voice activated or if I could enter a secured
code to have the phone answer itself.  Also a built-in answering
machine would be nice.

Does such a thing exist?
