One can have individually defined trackpad gestures to do specific things
that are in adddition to the default ones.
This is done in the trackpad commander part of the voice over utility.
Once you have the basics of using a mac down the trackpad and other
commanders can make the mac behave exactly as one wants it to in
performing just about any task.

Many of the gestures you know from the iPhone are the same: double tap
to open, flick left and right to go to previous and next item, flick
up and down to move through whatever the rotor is set to, etc. There
are also gestures to do things like interact, move to certain parts of
the operating system, etc. Here's a podcast, if you're in to that sort
of thing, I did awhile back, which was 3 years ago, but all the info
in it is still accurate.

Thanks, I am great with my iPhone, was wondering if a trackpad would help
me. Can one open applications or just adjust settings?

Rhonda,
The track pa makes things very accessible
It is a mouse type device
And allows us with voiceover to use the trackpad in the same way we would
use the iPhone or iPad touch screan.
Including giving us a roter for finer working.
