Are you only referring to the text fading and sliding in or do you want the bubble animation of the backing image as well? If all you want is the text animation, you can use Core Animation to implicitly animate the text into view by setting the center and opacity of a view--probably a text view. Something like:

[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[textView setAlpha:1.0f];
[textView setCenter:newCenter];
[UIView commitAnimations];

This code assumes that the current alpha on your text view prior to animating is 0.0 and the center is somewhere off screen. The variable newCenter is a CGPoint at which your anchor point will then display after the animation finishes.

Let me know if you need clarification.
