#1 is incorrect, because a sentence must start with a capital letter.

Apart from that, the meaning is the same.
Particularly in speech, I would say that 'please' usually comes at the end.

That surprises me. I always say it automatically as "Can you please ...?" or "Could you please ...?"

I wasn't just speaking of those two sentences. I was speaking more generally.
eg What time is it, please?
eg I'd like a Coke, please.

Oh. OK. I thought you were only talking about the "Could you?" formula.

Never mind.
