Thanks for your input and links to these sites. I hadn't thought about stack exchange but definitely some good traffic on there. I think what I really want to do is spend some time understanding pain points in this space - I'm not convinced I've found that one thing yet that really needs to be solved.

So far, I've interviewed a few of our users and they seem to be looking for an elance-for-hardware type of site where technical people submit ideas and a budget and hardware/software developers come together, create teams, and build that concept into a product. Quirky and Maker's Row do something like this but I'd still have to do a bit more customer discovery.

A bit far from what I'm aiming to build but I'm wondering whether I should listen a bit closer.
