PicSender, one of Cellular South's premier wireless applications, automatically saves photos taken on customers' wireless devices to their home computers, personal email, and/or favorite Web sites. The pageant photos will be uplinked to an online Flickr album called "2008 Miss Mississippi Pageant Moments" and can be accessed at http://www.cellularsouth.com/missmsvote .

Additionally, Cellular South is partnering with the Miss Mississippi Corporation to sponsor the Miss Mississippi Viewers' Choice Text Messaging Contest, allowing pageant viewers to vote for their favorite contestant. This year's winner will receive a $5,000 scholarship award to the college or university of her choice, along with a mobile phone and one year of free wireless service from Cellular South. The winner of the Miss Mississippi Pageant title also will receive a mobile phone and one year of free service.

"Cellular South is pleased to continue our relationship with the Miss Mississippi Pageant and support the educational future of some of the state's most talented young women," said Jim Richmond, director of corporate communications for Cellular South. "We're excited about the prospect of using the pageant as another way to demonstrate our support for education."

Cellular South customers can use their wireless phones to vote for a contestant at any time between Sunday, June 22 at 9 a.m. and Saturday, June 28 at 9 p.m. All pageant attendees, including non-Cellular South customers and wireless users who do not subscribe to text messaging, also can use complimentary Cellular South phones in the lobby of theVicksburg Convention Center to cast their text votes. The phones will be available during normal hours from June 24-26 and June 28. Voting closes at 9 p.m. on the final night of competition.
