I've just painted an ancient oak armoire using high-gloss, cream-coloured latex paint. I was wondering if I should put a coat of verathane (SP) on to finish it up, if I should leave it as-is or if there's another product that would work even better?

There is absolutely no need to put an additional finish on the paint. The paint you used is a high gloss. This is a very durable finish and is easy to clean. Leave it as is.

latex is rubber, some other finish could soften it up, bad idea

get yourself some old base varnish. Also when that is dry, get some lemon oil. that really makes it shine and keeps it shiny!!!!

Absolutely not, leave it alone, you risk finish compatibility.
