Great list of resources! Don't forget the ever classic Overture which displays the previous month's keyword searches on yahoo.

Another cool resource is GoogSpy which tracks your competitors keyword ranking as well as paid adwords campaigns

Remember though that Overture isn't updated anymore (not a criticism, it's still useful, but the data won't be current).
