Query: great idea, stunningly bad performance - Remote is useless in the real world

Bought for use on a motorcycle. Keep the ipod in a pock and use the remote on my arm over my jacket.It is worthless. 85% percent of the time no reaction from my ipod when I press buttons on the remote. If the remote and ipod are sitting on my desk about 3 inches or less apart performance goes up to around 30-40% which is pointless. If they have to be that close together why use a remote.I paid full price for it and am bummed. This thing is useless.
