Been working on a 3550 practice lab. A particular instruction is as follows:

"Configure FastEthernet 0/2 to support a Cisco 7960 IP phone using 802.1P
priority tagged frames. Use the default native vlan to carry all traffic on
this port. Trust ingress packet COS values."

The "book" solution is as follows:

switchport access vlan 20  ( from a previous instruction )
switchport mode access  ( to make this port unconditionally an access port )
switchport voice vlan dot1p ( THIS IS PART OF THE QUESTION )
no ip address ( garbage left over )
mls qos trust cos ( THIS IS PART OF THE QUESTION )
spanning-tree portfast ( from a previous instruction )

My solution was as follows:

switchport access vlan 20
switchport voice vlan 1 ( native vlan? maybe not because of the static vlan
assignment? )
switchport priority extend trust ( MY QUESTION )
no ip address
spanning-tree portfast

My questions are:

1) what are the differences between the "mls qos trust cos" command and the
"switchport priority extend trust" command?

2) what does the "switchport voice vlan dot1p" do as opposed to the
"switchport voice vlan 1" ? Am I seeing that only one vlan is being assigned
for both the phone and the PC to share? therefore configuration to
specifically take note of dot1p frames from the telephone?

I have read the command reference for all commands in question. There
appears to be a subtlety I am missing, no doubt due to lack of hands on with
voice implementations.

Thanks.
