I was just wondering if the S3 can take a series of bracketed shots in +-2 EV incrementals.

I dont have one yet. I'm getting one tonight, actually, and was just wondering if it had the feature.

The S3 has three shot auto bracketing. Not sure of the exact incremental settings though.

With the S3 Im nt sure if you can set the bracketing to exact numbers (I mainly use focus bracketing). With focus bracketing its just 'little - more - lots'. not '1 - 1.5 - 2'

It does bracket though

You can download any manual from Canon's web site.

You can set the S3 to fire three shots with one nominal exposure then two either side at up to 2 stops over and under. The range can be set in 1/3 stop steps. You can also move this range from either side of nominal to all over or all under by using the exposure compensation setting. You can also do something similar with the autofocus.
