-    The new multi-touch and gestures support enables user interaction
-    with more than one finger, and combines sequential touch inputs to
-    a 'gesture'.
+    Support for multi-touch input enables users to interact with many
+    parts of a user interface at the same time, and provides the basis
+    for gestures. Additional infrastructure for gesture recognition
+    allows a sequence of touch inputs to be combined to create gestures
+    that can be used to activate features and trigger actions in an
+    application.
