error in printing unicode

I just finished reading "Beginning Perl by Simon Cozens Chapter 1: First 
Steps In Perl" and i tried to print a Unicode character using the \x{} 
but i got a strange outcome i don't understand.
The code was:

#!/user/bin/perl
use warnings;
print "\x{2620}\n";

and the result was:

Wide character in print at C:\Documents and 
Settings\Vlad\desktop\test.plx line 3.

I used windows xp
cmd.exe
and i have activeperl 5.10.0 build 1002
