If your friend insists on getting an iguana just emphasize he should read up as much as he can about them BEFORE getting one. There's plenty of published and web information about their +'s and -'s!
Otherwise, I agree with you in that a beardy would be a better choice as a first lizard. My beardy "Leonotis" (or Leo for short) is a very cool animal. Beardies can get upwards of 18 to 24 inches long which is quite a handful. I've had to treat Leo lately for a stomach bug. If your friend doesn't think a 2' lizard isn't very powerful, he should try medicating one! I've since learned how strong Leo's jaws are, and that he knows how to use his claws!!!
