Are there any examples out there to emulate page turning like iBooks or Flipboard?

YES,

I saw this the other day on github.

http://github.com/brow/leaves "An iBooks like" page turning interface.

  • It's not a "real" leaves effect, it's static, but not that bad. The iBooks Effect is private API. – steipete Mar 09 '11 at 22:34
  • Btw, as of iOS5, Apple added UIPageViewController, so it now can be used w/o touching private API (well, more or less, since UIPageViewController is horribly buggy in iOS5, but that's another story. I got it working in PSPDFKit, after a lot of pain) – steipete Mar 05 '12 at 21:07

You might want to wait for iOS 5 (hint, hint). You can check out the WWDC iOS 5 videos (for free) if you are a registered developer (for instance "What's new in Cocoa Touch").

If you're into Math and OpenGL, there is a Page that explains how it can be made.
