Other ideas: Take him to the store and let him pick out a mini toilet for himself. Assure him that its his toilet and no one else is allowed to use it. Keep telling him that he's a Big Boy now and that all his friends are pooping by themselves. Tell him that you talked to [Spiderman/Hulk/SpongeBob/whoever] and he said to use the toilet. Embellish it some. I've had good luck with the superhero thing. Buy a big giant candy bar and put it where he can see it. Explain that its his as soon as he makes a deposit and not before. Tell him its a reward from Spiderman/whoever. Bribery is fine if its used sparingly. Report back.

The super-hero undergarments are pretty reinforcing as well. Let him pick out his own but they are only for kids who use the potty.
