They are just incompetent I guess. AT&T use exactly the same network standards as the rest of the GSM/UMTS-world including HSPA. Even if your phone wasn't compatible with their 3G network (e.g. if you had a European HTC Desire which supports UMTS only at 900 and 2100 MHz), it would still work on AT&T's 2G network.
There shouldn't be any issue except for a slightly inferior 3G coverage due to your phone not supporting UMTS at 1900 MHz.
