I am a big believer that everyone's thinking the same thing at roughly the same time. My partner and I tend to come up with great ideas, and then 2-3 years later it appears on the market executed well. We are continually saying "I told you so" with new products that come out.
I don't think it's that we are amazingly innovative people, it's just that we keep a pulse on technology and science trends, and love extrapolating them.
The ones that aren't on the market usually have a technical hurdle if you look into them. I've got a drawer full :)
