I have to agree, cold turkey is the best way for him... you probably wont think it is for you but at his age he will never remember it....
what we did was offer my daughter something else that she loved, everytime she cried for the "noonie".... (Santa took it for the baby elves)... eventually she got to where she would ask for her favorite toy of the time....
it wont last long, really....
good luck! This is always a hard part....
