Does the MX1100 have a very short range?

[Siberian]

I just bought myself the wireless Logitech MX1100. It connects using a USB stick. The mouse feels good, but has a suprisingly short signal range (I think). With my table and cabinet placement we're talking maybe 1-1,5 meter distance between mouse and USB stick. If I keep the distance down to a meter or less it works fine, but starts to hang at anything above that. Is 1,5 meters considered very far?? If so that's laughable! I seriously have to consider alternatives if that's the case.

I can get mine about 9 - 10 feet away and it works just fine. Do you have the wireless receiver plugged in on your case or on your motherboard? I tried it in my motherboard and then it started to stall a bit.
