My understanding is that no, Blu-Ray players are not made to play .avi files.  Depending on which brand you buy, however, you can download free softward programs and codecs from the internet that can help you to convert and play all types of files on your new player.  I found the 3 best user rated players for you and have linked to them.  The price ranges vary, so you definitely have pleny of GREAT options.  Enjoy your new player!

I have not seen a blu ray player that can play avi files, but I know of a great way that you can convert your avi files so that you can enjoy them on your blu ray player. It is called the HD movie maker ( http://www.flash-video-soft.com/hd-maker/ ). HD Movie Maker is a professional Blu-ray burner. With this software you can:
  • Encode Any Videos to High Definition Blu-ray Movies
  • Support importing almost all formats of videos, including WMV, MKV, AVI, DivX, XviD, MPEG, MP4, QuickTime Movie, Real Video, H.264/AVC, M2TS, etc.
  • Create high definition Blu-ray movies of different video resolutions: 1280x720p, 1440x1080p and 1920x1080p
Here are a few blu ray players that you might want to consider using to watch your converted AVI  files
