I thought mode 2 refers to the activation of the IS just prior of the shutter release (as opposed to the shutter button activation on Canon/Nikon) ? Maybe I'm wrong.

It is as Klaus describes on my Lumix TZ-3. Mode 1 runs all the time, to stabilise the viewer image, mode 2 just starts before picture taking. If you use a Panasonic OIS lens on a Olympus mFT camera, you only get mode 1.
To my surprise, I read some discussions (I forgot the link) that on mFT some users experience Mode 1 is more efficient. It is definitely more convenient.
