I guess this is no joke. Shimano is really releasing the Di2 version of Alfine. Just a wild guess, if the 11-speed version of the hub is SG-705, the 8-speed one should be SG-505? The msrp is $674.99 for the 11-speed and 8-speed is $339.99, and the lowest price I've seen for the 11-speed is $514.45 from eBikeStop, and 8-speed is $239.99 also from eBikeStop. There's also other required components to consider. The SG-MU705 motor unit costs a little more than $100, the right brifter (ST-S705R) is $239.99, and $349.99 as a set (ST-S705). I didn't mention anything about the left "brake-only" lever because it would make perfect sense to buy one unless the brake is not cable-actuated (hydraulics, wired electronics, or some wireless technologies. Who knows?). As you can see from above, all websites that carry the Di2 Alfine don't have any of the parts in-stock. So I guess we just have to keep believing until we can get our hands on one. In the meantime, let me organize the retail prices above neatly in a table:
