function thisReferencingCallback(instance, method) {
return function() {
return method.apply(instance, arguments);
}
}

setTimeout(thisReferencingCallback(this, someMethod), 50);

I was even able to omit the first line/step from his solution, leaving simply: setTimeout(function() { this.MethodToCall(); }, time); which worked for me in IE 8 but, alas, not in FF 3.0.10 (for which I had to revert to his original solution).
