Whatever happened to on & off?

I was fortunate to receive an I-POD and docking station from my family for Christmas - believe me I AM very excited. But..why did they make the thing so challenging to operate!?!?

I am beginning to get the hang of it but whatver happened to s simple on and off, volume up and down button ? When did the icon symbol takeover the world? There are ICONS now for everythign - from the restroom to the IPOD!

My 23 year old son tried his best to enlighten me - the double line is pause and the pointey/triangle thing is play - they are on the same part of the IPOD circle?!

So - everytime I thought I was starting things I was in the same action putting it on pause - go figure!

Again I say-whatever happened to a simple on and off?!
