Default another key cut

not sure if this is the right section but i currently have a 2002 toyota corolla for which i am looking to get another key cut. A few years ago the original key i was given shell started to crack so i was afraid of completely breaking the shell when trying to start the car so I called up Toyota and they said it would cost $500 for another key so at the time i went to my local locksmith and he cut me another key which i use to open the doors on the car using the key hole and to start the car, so i effectivley lost keyless entry or remote locking or which ever its called.
I still have the original key with the cracked shell but i havent used it since getting this other key cut. I am planning on selling my car and wouldnt mind having the original key or similar made so that the car can be opened using keyless entry like it used to.
any hints? Would my original key still work? Do any locksmiths do this sort of thing at a better price than the original manufacturer?
