A control unit, comprises a display and a user input device, wherein the control unit is adapted to present on the display an icon representing a state of a controlled device, and to receive via the user input device inputs defining at least two of the position, size and orientation of the icon. The state of the controlled device is then controlled based on the user inputs. The control unit can form part of the controlled device, or the control unit and the controlled device can be in a single device. Alternatively, the control unit may have an interface for a wired or wireless connection to the controlled device. The controlled device can for example be an audio device such as a portable music player, a portable computing device, a communications device such as a mobile phone or a walkie talkie, a portable imaging device, a games console, or a home automation device.
