I had the same symptoms... turned out to be a filthy throttle body in my case.
After little bonding time with the car, I had a clean throttle body again. While I was in there, I cleaned the MAF sensor too.
I also did the battery disconnect thing that KevinH outlined, and I got my rock steady idle back.
