Did some research into this field and then stumbled upon this article, which had drawn pretty much the same conclusion I had. However, I came up with an idea to adress the paralysis... REM sleep. A shot (probably some sort of colinergic drug or an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor) can put you into REM, and the TMS could be used to generate images, sound, etc. in your dreams kicking off a lucid-type state that the TMS can control. Input can be recieved from an EEG/polysomnogram and be compared with a waking baseline to determine the intended action and transmitted over the internet. Boom, modern-day pseudo-NerveGear, solved. (and just like the show, except with an injection kick it off) Alternatively, though this could be more dangerous and error-prone than the chemical, you could use the TMS to force your brain into REM...
