The ATAVRISP is basically a stripped down version of the stk500. It
can only do ISP programming via the SPI interface. It should support
those devices fine with UISP (take that with a grain of salt since
I've never used the ATAVRISP).
I'd recommend just spending a tad more and getting the stk500. You get
quite a bit more functionality including HiV programming, support for
more devices, LED outputs and Switches for input during prototyping,
etc.
