    Has anyone else noticed people using emoticons in their App-Store reviews lately?

    How is this done?

    It only appears to show up on the iPhone/iPod version of the App-Store though, and not on the desktop iTunes version.

    See the picture below for the same review of Hell's Kitchen (in the UK store).

    theres an app called "typing genius" that is supposed to help you type better on your ipod...it has a bonus of a few hundred emoticons in it.
    when you get the app, it will add a icon to your keyboard to access them...i got it for
    $.99
