Help New Android User - Problem with text messaging

I apologize if I am posting in the incorrect forum. I have also done a search for this problem on this site and havent found a definite answer. I am on the AT&T network and I purchased a Skyrocket two days ago (went from an iPhone 4). I have two contacts that I can send text messages to and they receive them but I don't receive their responses. Went back to store yesterday and changed out sim card, reset to factory settings, called AT&T and no luck. I went on to my Gmail account and found these two contacts under the group My Contacts, along with all the AT&T numbers. I moved these two contacts to the group Unassigned where the rest of my contacts are. Still no luck. I know these two contacts have iPhones and we did use iMessage for texting. This problem is becoming very frustrating and have no idea why its these two contacts. All my other contacts so far I can send and receive just fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
Hmmm. Are you receiving texts from anyone else? Android/iPhone, contacts/non-contacts?
At&t had nothing to say about it?

Best Buy was on the phone with them for about an hour. They went thru the coding on my account to make sure everything looked ok. I am receiving texts from other iPhone, HTC, etc users with no problems. If these two contacts werent imporant I wouldnt worry about it but since they are...
I just found it funny that Gmail had them in a different group than from the rest of my contacts.
 
isnt imessage the same as blackberry messagener just for iphone havent used imessage. however bbm used a different number called pin code. could this be your problem with these # they belong to imessage
