Is there a way to make my sent emails show up in my inbox on the iPad, similar to how it is shown in the gmail web view? I can do this in the Mac app by creating a smart mailbox that includes both inbox and sent messages. Is there something I can set up, either on the iPad or in gmail, that would let me do this?

Unfortunately, it can't be done in Mail under iOS 4.x. And it does not appear to be part of the initial improvements to Mail in iOS 5, according to news reports.
In Mac's mail app you have got the option to create a 'smart mailbox'. This allows you for example to only view unread emails. It can even do that over multiple mailboxes.
Sample rule for unread messages of today (taken from makeusof.com):
If you just want to have the unread messages always on top, there's a sort option for that in the menu between Edit and Mailbox (probably called View).

You could always simply view the "Gmail/All Mail" folder.
Inside Mail on your iPad, go to Mailboxes-> Gmail (under accounts) -> All Mail.
You'll see messages you've sent as well. If Gmail is your only mail account, simply stay in the All Mail folder all the time.
