The wayback machine has been great for me on occasion - very useful when you want to find out how a competing website has developed. I also used it one time to find out about an old robots.txt file from a competitor. SEOQuake is firefox extension kinda similar to the seobook SEO for firefox - I find it to be a little more useful though. The tools listed here are all good for SEO specific research, but I find that there is also a need for good market research in general. Who is the market leader, who are the main competitors, how big is the market, etc. I really appreciate the fact that you are covering this because competitive intelligence is such an important need.
