[Haskell-beginners] Lazy variant of sequence (or other way to approach problem)

Hey,
In my (SDL based) haskell program, I do:
events <- liftM ( takeWhile (/= NoEvent)) $ sequence $ repeat pollEvent
The execution of this never returns, I am guessing that is because
sequence evaluation never stops.
But if sequence would be lazy (and assuming pollEvent returns NoEvent at
some point) this should stop, should it not?
Is there a lazy variant of sequence? Or am I missing something here
completely?
Thanks!
Nathan
