I have been following Hypnion for about two years now, and like their screening technology. Their benchmark for insomnia has been Ambien (they are using Provigil as the alertness/circadian disorder comparator), which is not going to remain the state of the art option. Even provided that they do come up with a competitive insomnia drug, my quick guesstimate for a best-case marketing timeframe is 2009-10.Thus, as you note, it is 'early to worry'.
