I think everyone is a little confused. I don't think he's trying to turn off trackpad commander, correct me if I'm wrong. I think he literally wants to completely bump the track pad out of existance. He wants to make it where it's as if the track pad never was there to start with.

Hi i think if you use the cmd key and rotate 2 fingers in an anti clock wise direction on the track pad, it'll be turned off. I got that from sdudying the voiceover guide.

Subject: turning off trackpad on macbooks


Hi list,

Is there a way to turn off the trackpad entirely, while using a macbook or macbook pro with Lion? When accidentally touching it, even when I am in VmWare fusion inside windows, a whooshing sound may be heard, which means I am in dash board. Of course, you can turn that off, but is there a way to have the trackpad not react to me when I accidentally touch it? I know you can turn on mouse keys, but that is not really a solution. Having an external mouse or trackpad can be done as well, but I'm hoping to find how to just turn off the internal laptop trackpad. Any ideas?

Paul.
