Bluetooth Repeaters?

[apogee]

So I have an issue here, I live in a 2 room apartment.

1) My laptop (Pavillion DV2000Z) is in the living room.
2) My TV is in the other bedroom.

Current Scenario: I see my screen over the TV with RCA & SVideo Cables.

Problem: I want my Bluetooth mouse in my bedroom reach the laptop in the living room. I tried it, and the BT radio signal isn't reaching the laptop.

a) Is there such a thing as a bluetooth repeater?
b) Any other solutions? (Moving the laptop to my room isn't an option).

Note:
The distance between the computer and the area I want to use my BT mouse is 12 steps (6 steps to the room, 2 steps right turn into the bedroom, 4 steps forward to my bed

Thanks.
