Oh go on, just say it: you want a 3D environment.
I've read interesting things about Franklin3d.com, but that doesn't seem
to work on an iPad.
If you don't care about true 3D, you might be able to get away with
cheating with a 2D solution and a little extra effort to make things
"appear" 3D, but not /really/ be 3D.
You could calculate the math for this yourself, but there's always
AnimationEngine for moving stuff around.
