Nope, I use simple devices without pairing. The little mini bluetooth
keyboard I use with my APRS tracker is just connected each time with
hidd -- no pairing required. I believe the pairing provides mutual
authentication and encryption, something that you want for most things,
but it doesn't seem to be required.
