Yes, I do. So far I haven't seen it become incommunicado. How long does your N900 take to become inaccessible?

Less than 10 minutes.

Do you have email (or other online services) updating regularly? This will keep your WiFi alive for incoming connections. If I set my email to update every 5 mins I don't have problems.

No e-mail or any other online service. I've let it idle for over 2 hours because I was anticipating the phenomenon you encountered, but so far it was always on-line, both at home and at work, i.e. with completely different routers.

Have you perhaps reduced your WiFi power to 10mW? I'm running at the default value, 100mW, plus maximal power saving.

Yes, I reduced it to 10mW with maximum power saving

I will test again at 100mW to be sure

EDIT: Nope. 100mW, maximum power saving....still times out in less than 10 mins.

Have you seen the same behavior when connecting to other WLANs, too? My experience so far is limited to 2.

One thing that I still haven't done is to re-install vpnc, with which I was having the same issues as you. Did you install any other package from devel that might do something inconsistent with the new firmware?
