Given you were told at point of sale that 3G coverage was in your area, and
you also checked the map, I'd suggest it's likely you will not have a problem
getting a refund upon returning the product. It simply does not work as
advertised.
Mobile telcos are relatively used to this sort of thing, and may find it less
hassle to just give you your money back than deal with the ill-will created by
the alternative. YMMV, of course, but I certainly wouldn't say you're stuck
with it.
