I bought the iphone last night online. I went home and found a box on the website that said check for coverage in you're area. I typed in my zip code and it said coverage not available. Then i checked at&t website and it said that it had partner coverage. then i used a zip code that is just 20 mins away from me and it said it had coverage. Does this mean i cant get service and cant use the phone? If not then can i use another zip code, like the other one i used, and try and get service?

Well, my first question would be why you didn't thnk of this before buying such an expensive phone. That won't give me points though.
You will have to contact att and request partner coverage- they will guide you throught the steps. ATT only covers 270million of 300+ million people- a huge chunk missing.

There was a similar posting about a lady in Wiscousin who said that she purchased a iphone and couldn't get service in the city that she lives but got service in another city twenty minutes away. She was sadden by this discovery and was unhappy by this.
Basically your iphone will not work in the city that you live, until Cingular (A T&T) decides to provide service in that area. It would be useless to have the phone and not get a signal in your hometown city. You would have to go to another city to get service. That would be ridiculous. I recommend returning the iphone back to the retail store or where you purchase it until they have coverage in your city. You can get your money return.
