we use native vlan 1 on our switches as well...you can use any other vlan if you like. We tried that once and had problems with inserting a new redundant sup card, which when installed hot, puts its ports in vlan 1 by default and then causing vlan mismatch's which caused stp re-calc loop issues. Currently we use native vlan 1 for vtp management, and a seperate vlan for the data and telephony subnets.
