if you look at this ipad application ( http://www.blackboard.com/Mobile/Mobile-Learn.aspx ), there is a slide tab named, “Dashboard.” When you click on it, a new view slides out side ways. I’m aware that there is a split view that is new in iphone 3.2, but, I could not find anything on a slide tab or a side tab as implemented in this ipad application. How is this done?

The easiest way would probably be to create a custom UIView and design the left edge to look like the tab you wanted, and then set the view’s location so that only the left tab part is visible. When that tab is clicked you use CoreAnamation block around setting the view’s new location to the center of the screen.
There isn’t a Apple widget that does all of this by default, but it wouldn’t be that hard to roll your own.
