I just resolved this problem with a little hack:

static int s_CellHeight = 30;
static int s_CellHeightEditing = 60;

- (void)onTimer {
    cellHeight++;
    [tableView reloadData];
    if (cellHeight < s_CellHeightEditing)
        heightAnimationTimer = [[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.001 target:self selector:@selector(onTimer) userInfo:nil repeats:NO] retain];
}

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)_tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
        if (isInEdit) {
            return cellHeight;
        }
        cellHeight = s_CellHeight;
        return s_CellHeight;
}

When I need to expand the cell height I set isInEdit = YES and call the method [self onTimer] and it animates the cell growth until it reach the s_CellHeightEditing value :-)
