Yes, but is the interface really configured with the static address you specified or is it still using the DHCP assigned one (even though the NM information dialogue would have you believe otherwise). I found (by pinging my machine) that although NM reported the new static configuration in the way you describe, I didn't actually get the new static address until I restarted my machine. :-(
