I just sent a message to my wife's DoCoMo cellphone with the following header 
info:
To: ************@??
 Subject: Test =?utf-8?b?6Kmm6aiT5pS+6YCB?=
 Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2007 14:02:35 +0900
 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.5
 MIME-Version: 1.0
 Content-Type: text/plain;
  charset="utf-8"
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

And guess what, she could read the Japanese just fine. Like I said, it's only 
older models that lack UTF-8 support. I have been working on cellphone 
software-related work for years, and remember when they started getting 
Unicode support.
