Are you specifically writing for Windows phone 8, or can you write for 8.1? We have free VS2013 Express where you can write for 8.1 if you'd prefer to do that. Then you can use the flipview.

If my reply answers your question, please mark this post as answered.
NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined
objects and unknown namespaces.
