Anyone have any info on equipment to track down a wireless AP's or Client's ?

I have found the Yellowjacket , 
http://www.bvsystems.com/Products/WLAN/Yellowjacket/yellowjacket.htm which 
I have not tested and the AirMagnet product, with which we have tested but 
had no success.

I also know the Airespace product can be used to triangulate and track 
clients but we were looking for something more mobile to find stolen 
laptops in town.
