Creative Labs Cordless Keyboard and Mouse as some really good range.
Look at is Microsoft's Media Centre Keyboard.
The question is this, why that far?
Does she have huge monitor ? Or eyes like a hawk?

For any wireless keyboards or mice that would go that far, I don't know of any.

could get a usb extender cable and move the reciever out to give you more range.
