Oh no, we are going to end up in a heated conversation trying to define how many are in "a couple" vs "a few". Just glad you didn't add " several" to the mix. I have my coffee ready, so let's get started.
@TaRDy I did not know there's a free version of the Oxford Dictionary online. This might be the second best thing I've learned today, and it's only second because I got good news from a doctor today.
@jqubed Congratulations on your good news! So much better than the other kinds of news (bad and ambiguous) that doctors share. Best wishes for continued good fortune!
I think I own a lot of things that have Bluetooth but I find myself almost never using it. At home the X-Mini is probably the thing with Bluetooth I've used the most. At the office I have a keyboard/mouse that are Bluetooth that I use every day, so I guess that counts.
I have a bunch of bluetooth-enabled stuff, but it's been over a year since I've even turned the BT on my phone on, let alone used it. My laptop has BT, too, and I don't think it's ever been used. In fact, it's disabled in the device manager.
I also had a cheap Bluetooth adapter for my aux jack in my car, but I had to mess with the device and pair it every time I got in the car. Wasn't worth it.
2 pair of earphones (LG HB730+), Dell keyboard and mouse, 2 tablet keyboards (bought here), 3 speakers I use in my RV, 1 speaker I use in my kitchen, and a dongle each for my desktop and laptop. All of them I use everyday, except the speakers in the RV.
Now that I think about it, I forgot that my TV has a bluetooth remote control. It's awesome, because you don't have to point it at the TV, and don't need line-of-sight, like you do with standard infrared. So my corrected answer is two: My car with my phone, and my television remote.
@DJP519 I doubt your TV remote has Bluetooth, the only common alternative to infrared remotes is RF. I used that in the 1990s when I had to use each DirecTV reciever in a couple rooms. Tivo remotes use RF also. Try to pair your TV remote with your mobile phone. Bluetooth can but RF can’t.
I use a bluetooth mouse many times daily for the desktop that's hooked to my entertainment system. I rarely use its keyboard mate, but when I need to name a file or type in a You-Tube search I will. I have some bluetooth headphones that seemed like a great idea in my imagination but in the six months I've had them the only time they've been turned on was when I paired them with my tablet. Same with the portable bluetooth keyboard I bought here on Meh not long ago, although I expect I really will use that from time to time.
My Prius with my personal phone for hands-free calling, a Galaxy Gear smart watch with my work phone, and that's pretty much it for now. I am getting a bluetooth enabled set of headphones I am hoping to use with my phones and laptop for calls. I had a fitbit, but I gave it up because the company does not give you access to your own detailed data.
I have many devices, sereral of which I never use. I have a few that I use occaisionally, and the one I use constanly is my Apple Magic Trackpad. I would use a Bluetooth keyboard if I could easily switch it between my phone, tablet, HTPC, etc. I missed last week’s deal. :(

Couple = 2
Few = 3
@Pamtha Agreed.
@Pamtha a few is two...it rhymes so it must be true.
@TaRDy Nope nope nope
@Pamtha I have a few, but only a couple I use regularly, depending on how you define "regularly"
@Thumperchick @Pamtha for some reason I felt compelled to research this some more...we all know how yahoo answers can be, but the answer by "Frank F" is actually good, few people have said it better https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071204235425AAUNNrD
@Pamtha There are only 3 Marines?
@TaRDy I did not know there's a free version of the Oxford Dictionary online. This might be the second best thing I've learned today, and it's only second because I got good news from a doctor today.
@rockblossom Why would you need any more? 3 Marines could do ANYTHING.
@Pamtha You have a point. That 3 would have the strength of 30 because, like Galahad, their hearts are pure. (Gotta know your Tennyson.)

I'm still lurkin' in the 20th century.. Microwave popcorn still fascinates me. Love those MP3's, LCD's and blu-rays though.

One - my car. Ford Sync system for hands-free calls and occasional mp3 playing.
@DJP519 I forgot that one!!!! And also my Panasonic "Link to Cell" landline. LOVE THAT thing

I have a few and they're all wireless mice.

@Neil I assure you, it IS bluetooth, and I DO know the difference between bluetooth and RF. The model number is SV422XVT, feel free to look it up.

I say none only because I don't use them regularly I have 5 soon to be 6 ;)
Yes.
