According to http://www.neurotransmitter.net/newdrugs.html
Tenex (guanfacine) is awaiting final FDA approval. It is already available as a blood pressure medication. The sense I've gotten is that it is more effective for hyperactivity than inattention, but I could be incorrect.
There also appears to be a few drugs working on acetylcholine in Phase II trials.

I too am eager for an effective non-stimulant for ADHD.
