If you're looking for niche ideas, I put together a free site that might help. It lists and provides links to the hottest eBay categories for the last month. I've been using eBay's list for several months but found it frustrating that it didn't link to the actual categories. Browsing through the data I found a couple surprises and some seasonal ideas that will be useful next year. If you find it useful, please let me know and I'll continue to work on it.
