If you’re looking to add emoticons to your iPhone or iPod Touch, you might be surprised it’s already built in. Emoji is very poplular in Japan and was added in firmware 2.2 and the catch is that it’s only available when your iPhone is set to Japanese language.

To enable Emoji for non jailbreak iPhone, refer to this thread http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/855700 or you can download/search Emoji applications in iTunes Appstore for free.

For jailbreak iPhones, you can download Emoji via Cydia through iSpazio repo.
