The iPad can't do standard SMS, only iMessage. That means that, using the built in Messages app, you can only send messages to people with iPads, iPhones, iPod Touches, and Mac computers. There are apps in the App Store that will allow you to send text to other types of devices. Some of them off the service for free, some at a price.
Best of luck.
