Security System on '980 900SET - Locked Out!

For some reason the keyless entry system failed to unlock my '98 900 SET on Saturday, and I couldn't operate the car (I got in using the key, but of course set off the alarm). I thought the battery in the keyless remote was dead, but after a few minutes of randomly (and increasingly violently ;-) jabbing the unlock button, it suddenly worked, and I was able to get it going. It seems to be working fine now.
Questions:
1) What do you think happened? I guess I should replace the battery in the remote anyway.
2) Is there any way to start the car if the security system has been turned on and the remote doesn't work? It isn't very user-friendly to have the car immbolized without a way to override the remote - say by punching a code into the SID - as you can in BMWs.
