1. You could put black electrical tape across a Pocket PC's IR window, and pinky-swear not to ever take it off.

3. With a little judicious wire-snipping on the inside of your device, you might be able to disable the unwanted features. Of course, that will nullify the warranty and possibly nullify its ability to function at all.
4. With a little bit of copper wire and a pair of pliers, you could build a miniature Faraday Cage to put around your device; that will keep any signals from coming in or out.
Have I missed any other "outside the box" ideas?

I've actually done all these things! I still have to be able to prove to 'the powers that be' that I have no wireless. They actually do put foil strips ov er IR ports. Bluetooth is another matter...
