I'm not sure I understand: IdeaStorm has been there for years and years.

EDIT: A quick perusal of their archives shows posts from mid 2007.

Oh, didn't know that. I was referring to Dell using it as a way to figure out what the market wanted from new products, and the analogy being, "If I'd asked people what they wanted, they would've said a faster horse -- Ford"
