That’s a lot of emoticons.

I don’t know the specifics, but a little bird told me that the iPhone has always had these emoticons and that Apple had to lock them away for some reason. Same bird also showed me a way to unlock them, and any iPhone you send these to will be able to render them.

Here’s how:

Download this free app onto your iPhone: Spell Number

Open Spell Number and type in this number: 91929394.59

Click return, and close the app (press the Home button)

Go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> International Keyboards -> Japanese

Turn “Emoji” ON.

There you have it. Now whenever you want to type an emote just click the little globe in your keyboard and type away. Again, anyone who has an iPhone will be able to see these in an SMS (and I’ve seen it work on twitter).

EDIT:
Here’s an article about “Emoji”

With the release of the new iPhone 3G S the allure of the iPhone became too much and I caved on Sunday when I was in Red Deer for father’s day, three days after the release.

Apple has won this round and the future isn’t looking too good as I’m planning to save for a MacBook Pro.

I might as well accept that Apple is going to take lots of my money.

I did feel bad about leaving my KEYBO though. That phone was good to me and I have no complaints about it. I’m selling it and my 32 GB iPod Touch as well so if you’re interested let me know.

(totally wrote this post from my iPhone btw)
