Yes, sounds like it.  Thanks for contributing your experience.

FWIW, it's much more frequent than that for me.

I haven't done a careful survey of incidence with various kernels, but
I'm sure I've seen this freeze with all of the following, and usually
within only a few hours of use.
- Timo's "-moredrivers" kernel
- the current Debian 2.6.29 openmoko-gta02 kernel
- the SHR-T kernel from mid January 2010.
