I couldn't find a page turning transition download (except one that came in a bundle for $59.00). But, I found these instructions that can teach you how to make the transition yourself! They seem easy, and best of all, it's free!
Check them out here:
http://www.technologytrish.co.uk/ppttipspageturn.html

First produce your slides! Then save the presentation but choose the option to save as "jpeg file interchange format" (You'll need to scroll down in the save as type box).

Now on slide 2 add from draw > autoshapes > basic shapes a "page curl" shape. Resize it to cover the slide. You might want to make the curl more obvious with the yellow handle.

Right click and > format autoshape. In fill > color choose "fill effects > picture" and insert the saved jpeg of slide 1 (note the slide before!). Change line to "no line". Slide 2 should now look pretty much the same as slide 1!

Now give the page curl an exit animation of collapse > to left > medium speed and "with previous". Also add a with previous emphasis > grow 150% > medium speed.

Test this out and make sure it looks right..

If all is well copy and paste the page curl on to the next slide and use format autoshape to change the picture to the jpeg of slide 2. Continue!

I believe that you are looking for what is termed a "page roll", as shown below...

CrystalGraphics sells seven collections of PowerPoint transitions for $59.00 each. The page roll is part of Volume VII.

Based on the quality of the various transitions, the $59.00 price seems reasonable. CrystalGraphics also sells a number of other PowerPoint add-ons such as templates, graphics and sound effects.

This is a fairly simple animation but if you would like a more professional effect have a look at the Page Turn Animator from PowerPoint Alchemy:

Also, check out this excellent article:

Had you bought an Apple Computer, and then acquired their very reasonably priced iWork suite ($80), you would have their presentation program Keynote, which is far superior to MS-powerpoint.

There is a page transition that is part of Keynote called "page flip" which does what you're looking for.

Simple. Superior. Built-in. By Apple Corporation.

:)

(and did i mention that it imports powerpoint files and can save to .ppt format?)
