Is the "new" Portra 160 in stores yet, and how is it recognized on the packaging? Thanks.

Kodak has your answer in this handy little online .pdf:

Well, maybe not so little, but the packaging indicators show on the first page.

I asked about the new portra at the pro photo lab/store and they told me kodak is still sending out their old stock until it runs out. I'm not sure they really knew what they were talking about, though, so don't take my word for it.

That's consistent with what Kodak said in their announcement. Something to the effect of: The film(s) will be replaced on a stock-turnover basis.
