Bob,
Thanks for the timely response! So essentially if you configure a port to be a static trunk port, DTP frames are sent. However, their purpose is pretty much to "inform" the other side of its trunking configuration, not so much to actually "negotiate". Sort of like when my girlfriend says "I'm open to discussion as long as you agree with what I say", right? :) just kidding (hope she's not subscribed to this list!)
Thanks,
Ken

Ken,
Great question. DTP static Trunk Mode DOES send DTP frames. Some devices
choke on them, hence the ability to turn them off. One scenario we have
seen is when you trunk a 3550 to bridged subinterfaces on a 3640. Trunk
flaps.

I can only set this command on statically configured TRUNK or ACCESS ports
(not DYNAMIC ports). I thought that by setting a port to be a static access
port or trunk port, all DTP negotiation was disabled anyway. Am I wrong?
