If in fact he's getting the text message, I don't know that's the case because it defaults to iMessage. This is one of those things where there should be a definite switch to let me decide if I want to text my friend or send him an iMessage.
So as I understand it he has an iPad but not an iPhone? I see that could be an issue. I guess you would just have to make sure you're messaging with the green (sms) bubbles and not the blue (iMessage) ones. In that scenario I'd probably never iMessage him.
