Claim One:
1. A method comprising: forming proximity data indicative of existence of one or more pointing objects in proximity of, but not touching, a sensing panel; determining that one of the one or more pointing objects that was formerly in proximity of but not touching the sensing panel has touched the sensing panel; in response to determining that one of the pointing objects that was formerly in proximity of but not touching the sensing panel has touched the sensing panel, determining a first probability that movement of the one or more of the pointing objects is indicative of a predetermined non-touching gesture; comparing the first probability to a predetermined threshold; in response to the first probability having a first relationship relative to the predetermined threshold, for a predetermined period of time after the one or more pointing objects that was formerly in proximity of but not touching the sensing panel having touched the sensing panel, determining a revised probability that movement of the one or more of the pointing objects is indicative of a predetermined non-touching gesture; triggering a gesture event related to the predetermined non-touching gesture in response to the revised probability increasing relative to the first probability; and triggering a touch event related to the one or more pointing objects that was formerly in proximity of but not touching the sensing panel having touched the sensing panel in response to the revised probability decreasing relative to the first probability.
