Does anyone know how do you implement (iOS 5) the flipping effect on a view like the one from Apple's new text book study cards?

Here you can see it working (min 2:56): http://www.apple.com/education/#video-textbooks

Thanks in advanced!

CoreAnimation, layer based. There's no standard flip animations like that, at least yet.

Are simple effect like the UIView transitions part of the Core Animation framework? –  Juan González Jan 23 '12 at 21:44
If you mean page curl/flip effect like in UIPageViewController, then probably no, I think OpenGL involved. –  Kyr Dunenkoff Jan 24 '12 at 5:25
