I tried entering the wrong PIN (like 30 consecutive times) and I was able to replicate the state my phone was in the other night. I got a countdown clock counting down from 00:01:04 with the "Done" key grayed out. If I went ahead and input my PIN or just waited for the clock to run down, my screen would always time out and then the clock would reset to 1:04 when I tried to press something again. Instead, I ended up rolling the scroll wheel back and forth until the clock finally reached zero. I was then able to enter my PIN and get back in. So now I know how to deal with this weird "post crash" condition if it ever happens to me again. Hopefully this info might help someone else out in the future.
