I've seen several cell phones which have this capability (when you
subscribe to an additional service). I'd say that's likely to be your
most cost effective way of handling this.
If I recall, the phones have a gps receiver, and automatically transmit
their position on a certain schedule, via the cell network, back to a
central tracking web site; someone with the correct password can then
see the location.
Hth,
Chip
