I see this pattern in many successful products. As soon as you have a prototype, you should show it on forums and irc/chat.
What I think most people are afraid of though is that your idea will either be "stolen" or that noone will be interested in your product ...

I've noticed a pattern as well where these successful entrepreneurs also don't worry about their idea being stolen.
The idea should be such that anybody with ton of money/connections wouldn't be interested in.
And if a solo developer is trying to look for prospective customers, the customer should feel exited about just hearing the product. Otherwise there is no point in pursuing the idea. So there should be no worry about the customer not being interested.
