I didn't necessarily get the feeling that they were foreshadowing a mid life crisis for Jim... just Second Life product placement and irony that Jim got so into a game for "losers"

This underachieving in life idea has been a recurring theme for Jim since season one. However, it was kind of pushed back now that he's with Pam, but IMO it's significant because he's realizing that what he's been fixated on for so long---winning over Pam, isn't going to solve the personal problems of his life.

He sees she's so content with what she's doing, and is thinking "this is it?"

I might be overanalyzing a 20 minute TV sitcom, but it's the way I see it. Either way, after the lackluster first 3 episodes, I'm very happy with the last two.
