I just saw a time trial bike set up with 11-speed Di2 at Bicycle Outfitters in Los Altos, CA. I also saw similar on a Trek @ Chain Reaction in Cupertino, CA.

Can I use bcr2 to turn on multi-shift mode? Or do I still need PCE1?

You can do it all with the charger. Its all in the same piece of software.

Some teams riding Shimano 9070 11spd are using non-branded brakelevers.
Again something new? Or older prototypes?

Giant has a few 9070 sets in stock. They don't sell them as groups, but I see they have some of each part in stock. If your lbs is a giant dealer they should be able to order it up for you.

Thanks all for the information on programming the system. I was under the impression that you had to purchase the SM-PCE1 to do it or have the LBS do it. I did not see that information anywhere else, only here in this forum. My LBS confirmed the information. I'm very excited about that.

I know the the ultegra junction works on dura ace with a firmware update, suppose the reverse is probably true but I don't know for sure.
