    The conspiracy theorist in me wonders why Apple would continue to omit the most screamingly obvious feature from their phone?

    A quick Google suggets that AT&T, and their interest in getting people to overuse their SMS allocation may have something to do with it.

    Either way, it's pretty comtemptible, in my view.

    But, I digress.......

    Is there an App that will count SMS characters within the iPhone SMS client?

    Or do I have to jailbreak in order to install one such as this? >

    yes you need to jailbreak,
    when you do, you'll see a new app on your springboard called Cydia
    its a jailbreak community portal, it has a search facility, for apps you wont get in app store, customizable tweaks etc,
    search "sms counter" and press install, happy days, you will now have an sms counter as requested !
