Hello folks, first time reader and poster... Once I discovered this forum actually exists, I explored many of the topics and found them invaluable, so I pretty much knew I wanted to join ASAP... Much like I want to lucid dream:}

So many long stories short, I'm the poster boy for the magical pill type of person, at least in regards to LDs. As in, realizing the time, effort, patience, and trial and error that goes into something like being able to LD, (as if many of you don't know already) I'd rather just take the "magical pill" and of course have many wild crazy lucid dreams... Well, as success goes, not so much

Now, beyond the obvious kitch factor of battling bad guys with Rhona Mitra and or exploring species 8472's fluidic space, there's a lot of therapeutic value to LD both mentally and physically... Yeesh, okay, I just stopped and gave my thread a once over so first, my apologies for going on. I'm just trying to introduce myself and make it clear about my history, and lack there of, and why I'm here now.

So, I have read a few books on the subject, tried the memory recall technique, and even owned a nova dreamer for a time, which I resold on ebay. So it has definitely been on my mind for years, but sadly as I said, I now lack the patience that I had a few years ago when nothing seemed to happen. Even tried those supplements, Brilliant Dreams (which if anything, as I vaguely recall, gave me weird dreams.)

So here I am, ready to try again. One thing that peaked my interest was the existence of a new novadreamer. It seems that the aspects I didn't like about the first one, most notably its comfort and actual success, may have been fixed with the new one... Yet, where google almost always offers TMI on anything you can think of, I really haven't found anything about the novadreamer 2 beyond some posts and info that says it was due out last year and the first one was canceled around 03\04.

Finally, that brings me to my first question \ issue \ curiosity... Is it being produced yet? I don't think the lucidity institute is selling it, so then who is? Has anyone tried it? Basically I'm looking for any information anyone would have on it so I can assess whether its worth the many hundreds of dollars I'm sure it will cost.

So that's it... Hopefully your eyes didn't roll to much with this thread, so thanks in advance and I look forward to any help.
