I don't think so. I think it will attract more customers to the brand. GM is in it to make money, so it's only common sense that they'll bring out less expensive models so that they can sell more of them. Plus, a smaller vehicle is good. Not everyone needs or wants a vehicle the size of the H2.
Look at BMW and Mercedes. They both have cars that sell for under 30k, and that doesn't seem to hurt thier prestige any. I think GM wants Hummer to be thier version of Chrysler's Jeep division, albeit more upscale.
I think the only way it will be bad is if GM makes the H3 into into a carbon copy of the H2, but smaller.
Oh, and what is the opinion of the H1 owners on this? Did they say the same thing when the H2 came out?
