Apple has created the font that will be used to produce the proposal document, 
and to 
print the ISO 10646 and Unicode standard charts. The license for that font is 
not 
defined yet.

Support for displaying Emoji depends on vendor support. Once standardized, 
there will 
probably be fonts available. More "nice" display with colored and animated 
images is 
usually achieved with dedicated support, as is done in Japanese cell phones, in 
the 
iPhone with SoftBank subscription, in Google Mail, and in products from other 
vendors.

In the future please post questions like this to the emoji4unicode group:
