Do you know what they USB cords look like inside? Are they a few large wires
or is it a bunch of small ones? I ask because I wonder if it would be
possible to cut and splice a couple of 15 footers to get a longer cord. Why
the heck would they make it impossible to link the cords?? Strange...

As for the usb extension cord--- none exist. I think the max link
you
can find is about 14 or 15 feet. I work in the purchasing
department of
a large computer company in Alabama. I have even tried calling
cable
manufactures to see about getting one made and no such luck. They
also
put an end to connecting 2 cables together. Usb products have an
end
that is not male/female it's called a/b. The usb A end will not fit
into the usb B end. I do know that there is no length restriction
just
that you loose some quality the longer you go. Just like a printer
cable sometimes you can use a 100 ft cable and sometimes not
