I was very surprised to look at my DHCP pool last night and see close to 20 IP(V4) addresses taken. First I thought that my router has been hacked.
 
Then I started counting:
1 Macbook Pro, Macbook Air
1 Ipad, 1 Android 7" tablet, Ipod Touch.
2 Iphones, Nokia E51.
2 DVRs + Tivo
Xbox360, HTPC, DVD player (Oppo95), PS Audio Bridge.
2 Win7 PCs (1 gaming, 1 office)
1 Dell laptop (wife work).
1 NAS, 2 wireless printers (Laser  + MF Inkjet).
 
How they proliferate! How long before devices currently in the analog domain (e.g. amps, speakers, turntables etc.) joins the trend?

3 MacBooks
1 windows server
4 squeezeboxes
4 proliphix ip thermostats
2 iPhones
1 blackberry
1 kindle
1 iPad
1 Nas
1 apple time capsule
4 sagetv extenders
1 xbox
1 AT&T microcell

25. There may be more, but can't think of any off the top of my head...

4 iPhone 4's
4 MacBook Pro's
1 Droid
1 iPad (1G)
1 AppleTV
 
Does AppleTV count? I think that connects to our WiFi. My sister, my brother-in-law, my mom, and I have iPhone 4's and my aunt has the Droid. My aunt, my mom, my brother-in-law and sister(they share one), and I have a Macbook Pro each. My sister owns an iPad(which she got for free) and she has AppleTV as well. That's a grand total of 11. Haha. We used to be a Blackberry family, but when the iPhone came to Verizon, we jumped off that ship. Jeez, I hated Blackberries.

Holy crap, and I thought my:
 
2 iPads
2 iPhones
ATV
2 MacBook Pros
Mac Mini
and PC
 
connected through an Airport (soon to be Time Capsule) were bad.  I use wired connections where possible, however, as there are so many wireless points where I live everything is screwy, even on wideband.

It seems that head-fi is a place where we can find people just like us, whether it is about our love for music or just our tech indulgences.
