Actually, this really isn't a worry either. The nature of IrDA-SIR (used on PDAs) is a very short range of around 1-meter. So I'm sure you'd be able to notice that someone within 1m of you was aiming their PDA directly at your Axim. :)
This remains true even with units like the X3, which have Consumer-IR and IrDA-SIR. Even though it can reach 25+ feet for remote control of consumer electronics (uses Consumer-IR), the data transfer range (uses IrDA-SIR) is still only around 1m.
