My remote recently has started to be really flakey. I am assuming that the battery is the source of my trouble. Anyone replaced the battery in their remote? Is the battery something easy to source at a local store?

Searched the BBS and didn't find anything. (Although I didn't search very long, it is taking 20-30 seconds for each page to load from here in the states.. The BBS has been REALLY slow lately.)

It's a very common, standard battery.

It is used in many watches, calculators, remotes, keyless-entry remotes, etc. You can find it at any electronics store, jewelry store, and many grocery stores in fact.

As with any watch/calculator battery, you go by the number on the face of the battery, in this case "2025". You'll see it sometimes labeled as CR2025, BR2025 or something similar, depending on the battery manufacturer.
