Hello Tami,

My name is Marcus and I've been a long time subscriber of Verizon (3+ years now). I am a tech influencer also -- I tell other people what to buy. I was told that you are one of the person's at Verizon who is in charge of PR. As a customer to an executive exchange -- could you provide me with an explanation as to why there's no Galaxy S4 with 32GB on Verizon Wireless?

Can you give me a time frame as to when that's coming? I'd really appreciate a response as I feel like we have been kept in the dark for a long time while other carriers like AT&T get their version.

I don't expect you to respond -- but it would be nice though. Thanks for your time, if you even bothered to read this email.

A concerned customer,

-Marcus
