According to the citation in the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/28/science/28cell.html), it doesn't address the immune problem that destroyed the beta cells in the first place, and is therefore interesting in biological research terms, but probably useless for Type 1 diabetes. And it's nearly useless for those Type 2's whose diabetes is rooted in insulin resistance, which is the vast majority of diabetics.
