One of my clients is seriously considering using Courier 2 for deployment for a number of sites, but they have a few questions, that I can't find information about on the marketing stuff and product pages. If anyone knows the answers, I'd really appreciate it!
Is it possible for Courier to copy datatypes such as uComponents ones (multi node picker etc) out of the box, or would we need to write a custom DataResolver for each one?
Does Courier support sending content to more than one instance? For example: Dev > Staging > Live?

My understanding its that you'll only need to use custom DataResolvers when you're using data types with complex ways of storing content ids. I've been able to transfer the uComponents multi node picker (using the csv option) ok without any custom code. You'll need to specify custom data types with their GUID in courier.config.

Yep. You can set up multiple locations. Again, you configure them in courier.config
