Can This Software Help Tag My Photos?

A company called Polar Rose AB has announced that they will provide free technology that can recognize faces in photos. What I want to know is, one, how accurate is it and, two, can I use it to automatically tag my photos? I'm guessing it's not fast enough to do away with a database of tags when thousands of photos need to be searched. But give me automatic tagging and I'll be very happy (and willing to pay). Even if it's not 100% accurate, provide a confidence measure so I can sort by confidence. That would be good enough for the snapshotter that I am.
