Why? If your app can work in portait and landscape, don't restrict it. It's not like landscape==tablet. The initial tablets are somewhat landscape oriented (but not much given the whole system bar thing), but you can be sure there will be others that are portrait-orientated and you will be making your app annoying for users.
