In this week’s Gadget Lab podcast, the crew toys around with phones, knives and robots.

Senior editor Dylan Tweney gives us shares his experience visiting SRI, where he saw an awesome wall-climbing robot.  Watch out, Spider-Man.

Then we recap the latest iOS software update for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. It addresses the “bugs” that made the devices store too much location data.

Staff writer Mike Isaac joins the show to talk about LG’s latest dual-core smartphone offering, the mighty G2X. Verdict: It’s a powerhouse.

We wrap up the podcast with the Bear Grylls knife and machete set. They’re sharp enough to chop vegetables and bears.
