Look under Settings / General / Sounds. In the third section, tap "Text
Tone" and you'll see a set of "Original" tones and above it a set of "New"
ones.

I see the 17 new text tones, but how do you apply one of them to a contact so
you know who just texted you?

Go into contacts, select a contact, edit contact, it's right below ringtone.

The new textones almost sound like they got them from Warner Bros cartoons.

I have a 3GS and after the upgrade the new text tones do not appear either. My tones are after going to settings/sounds and the same old ones are there

Thanks Dave... I thought I was the only one. I have a 3GS also. I'm going to try to backup and restore to 4.2 unless someone else gives me a red flag not to. This is actually the first time I've ever had a prob with an iPhone upgrade.

I've read in a couple places online that they're apparently available
on the iPhone 4 only.

Apparently Apple must believe 3G and 3GS hardware platforms are just
too old and rickety to support additional text tones. 

I'm not seeing any difference on my 3rd gen iPod Touch. I think the
only new feature that would effect me in any way is the Airprint,
which does not work with a Windows desktop.
