Will call Verizon later today to find out what the heck is going on.

Pooh.... Yes, you are correct...sort of ...
Free texting is specific to iMessage, which is a part of iOS 5. If both iPhones are using iOS 5 and iMessage, texting is free - worldwide. If I'm not mistaken, you'll have to use the same ID as they used for iCloud or their AppleID. For many, it's the same as the phone number; for others, it's not.
Once you get it working, it works great. If you'd like to test it with me, PM me and we can get it working pretty quickly.
