you can buy the v2 cigs notebook cig which is 5v i checked or if you want a longer cord and a 5.1v cig there is the power cig by v2 cigs at v2cigs.com
It is actually better that they use a shorter cable. You can always make it longer, but you cant make it shorter. It would be a pain if you were using a portable power device (android phone or minty boost) with a 10 ft cable.
I know this is old, but to answer the power question, USB2 ports provide 5V at a maximum of 500mA. (Note: truly USB compliant buses only provide 100mA initially until the device requests high power mode, at which point 500mA is possible; but this requires the device to request high power from the host).
Your best bet is a powered USB hub, which should be capable of up to 2A at 5V.
Yeah this thing is far from 5 volts. also, DO NOT BUY THE GRAPE SODA OR FRENCH TOAST FROM ELECTRONICSTIX!! They are horrible! I would not suggest buying e juice from these guys AT ALL. I have bought from liquidXpress, liberty flights, ENjuice, and halocigs and can vouch for those guys. totally wicked makes good liquid but its way too harsh of a throat hit for me. quality though.
Under load volts is all that counts. At one forum a member stated that Joye batts are only putting out about 3.1V, while vaping. (under load).
willyvhc says you are at 4.2V. Assuming a 2.3 ohm Joye 510 atty you'll need 1.8A to hit 4.2V. Seems like a lot to be coming out of a laptop USB port. For a true 5V experience you'll need about 2.2A (2200mA).
Hopefully you ordered at least a 2000mA AC 5V USB adapter. That should give you about 4.6V. Which to me at least is plenty.
@TheGusK right on man! you def. sound like you know what you are talking about. I'll take your word for it since I only understood about 40% of your comment...lol!

usb cords, power about 15 ft, so i'd be best to get an extension cord.
