No iPhone in Puerto Rico, US

Technically yes, but it isn't part of the 50 states that make up the us. It may not yet be available yet.

That is because Puerto Rico isn't technically part of the US, but is instead a US territory. Much like half the world, including the US, used to be a British territory. However, it is interesting that it isn't offered in Puerto Rico.

Apparently, the iPhone can't be activated if the user
lives in Puerto Rico (US). Area code 787 or 939.

Apple had a store in PR ~20 years ago. Right now
there are no Apple stores here, although everyone
else is here (CompUSA, Sony Store, Modernica (
http://modernicaonline.com/ ), Office Max, Radio
Shack, ...).

iPhone not available in this stores, including
corporate AT&T stores.

If someone from Puerto Rico is able to use or
activate the iPhone let us know. Puerto Rico is
included in AT&T's US coverage.

Has anybody purchased it in the states, brought it back, and activated in Puerto Rico? Thanks for the info, Mario

If you use a US address, won't it change your Puerto Rico area code 787, to the area code in the US address you are using?

I have the same issue.

I moved from PR to NY 2 years ago but have kept using my 787 number, and I'm awaiting an iPhone that was bought online yesterday. It's supposed to get here between 2 to 4 weeks, so I'm sure by then someone will have a better say at this.

I did go to the AT&T store near my house a few days before launch and asked them about this, and after they looked at my account they told me everything seemed to be in order and I should be fine. But after looking at the chaos going on with the activations right now, I'm sure us guys with 787 area codes will have some issues about this.

Still, I'll post whatever I hear and find out.

If it doesn't work, I'm gonna have to cancel my account and open up a new one here.

iPhone, Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10) Slowly Dying...

Some one have call AT&T and Ask about this Issue? It can't be activate by phone on a case like this.

I assume this only works if you are already an AT&T customers. Porting a number from another carrier AND being in Puerto Rico sounds like a no-go....
