Yes, 2 is the best choice. I have recent experiences. We have the idea (3 founders), we started our works but suddenly we are having face some problem. Two is free and one is busy with something else -- it started happening frequently. Two are technically skilled and one is business guy. But over our before to born our startups, we had to close everything. Because, it's not the way. Also, see the history, the million dollar companies like Google, Yahoo, HP and so on companies. Also, checkout youtube.com (3 founders) there were communication/ jawad has time issues) -- though it was million dollar company, just becuase of the dedication of two others founders :). It doesn't happen all the time.
If you have an idea you're interested in working on for several years of your life, it makes sense to start researching it and proofing the concept ASAP.

I wouldn't go more than 2. 1 is optimum to start out with, IMO.

What is your basis? Why do you believe that 1 is optimum?
