You would probably want to talk to marketing and bring a lawyer with you. Your wife would know the other things I would guess about making sure ideas aren't stolen.

Well, unfortauntely her specialization in corporate law, which she claims is a completely different animal than patent law, so she wasn't able to lend much help.
I remember once, when I was in a band, instead of going through the expensive copyright process we instead sent a CD to ourselves through the mail and didnt open the package. The mail dated the package and so that was our proof that we had the idea first. I wonder if I could do something similar.
