Guy Claxton makes the same point (about the importance of the unconscious mind being able to turn over learned facts and concepts to generate new ideas) in some detail, and with more evidence -- dare I say there is a strong flavour of anecdote in the Poincaré piece? -- in a few of his books. Hare Brain, Tortoise Mind is probably the most accessible and direct on this point, though I love the broader scope of Noises from the Darkroom.
