AWS is not compatible with AT&T/Rogers; it is used in North America (t-Mobile in US and Wind in CA).
Yes, I know AWS isn't compatible with AT&T/Rogers (though, there are devices that will do both). The question is more about distinction: a LOT of the blogosphere uses NAM to mean "AT&T/Rogers 800/850+1900 frequencies", because for several years that's all that there was for UMTS in North America. So, it's kind of unclear to say "NAM", as a result.
