In your activity, override onKeyDown() and consume the events. For up
and down, this should work.

Note, though:

-- not all button events get to onKeyDown() (notably, HOME does not)

-- many users will not like you very much, particularly blind users
and users of Google TV, where the pointing device is rather important

-- this only works within your own activities where you implement the
onKeyDown() method; you cannot do this for the whole device
