Sorry, I don't believe there is a way to do that. Market is not intended to deliver applications tied to a particular device; it is for applications that are developed for the regular platform.
One possible trick you can use is to also require that the OEM include a shared library of yours, if you put a <uses-library> for this in your app's manifest, then (some day in the future) Market will only show the app for devices that have this library. (Market doesn't do this right now, but hopefully will soon.) Actually, if your app needs some functionality from the device that is not part of the platform, the proper way to do this is to put it in a shared library like this that the application uses (and the OEM implements). This may just be what you want to do anyway.
