This is the feature for the accelerometer: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html#FEATURE_SENSOR_ACCELEROMETER
<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html#FEATURE_SENSOR_ACCELEROMETER>Pay some attention as you add new features -- your app will disappear from Market on any devices that don't explicitly declare that feature, and we are still shaking out some issues where manufacturers have missed a feature here or there. This particular one should be pretty safe since it was added as a default part of the platform back in 2.0 when most of the feature stuff was introduces. (For earlier versions of the platform Market *should* assume that the feature exists on such devices, since they were required to have the hardware.)
