MacRumors says they have found evidence in the 2.2 firmware build that Apple is finally accommodating users who want Googles Street View on top of Google Maps for the iPhone. Apple has gone to great lengths to hide what's new and improved in the new Firmware, but sneaky peaks see a few things on the horizon.- Support for Google Street View for the Google Maps application. Street View allows users to view panoramic street level photographs in select cities within the Google Maps application. The feature was recently demoed on Google's Android phone.

- Support for Japanese emoji icons (screenshot) -- a popular feature for Japanese phones. The lack of emoji support has been blamed as part of the reason for slow iPhone adoption in Japan.

So there could very well be some new additions that make a few folks happy...for once.
