Default if I break the window in my '03 Cayenne, will the side impact airbags deploy?

For starters, I have had nothing but problems with this car. The latest and biggest problem, is that the car locked itself with the keys inside. Since it will take 3 weeks to get a new key from Porsche, I am considering breaking a window to get into the car. My only concern is that the side impact airbags may deploy. Does anyone know if this will happen?

typically side air bags are controlled by a sensor...

Can you get a locksmith to come unlock the door? Seems like that would be a little easier than waiting 3 weeks for a new key. It also dawns on me that it may be cheaper to do that than break the window. Or are we too late and the window already busted?

Or maybe even a cop with a slim jim can open the door (for free).[sm=exactly.gif]
