Dragos had a little device that did this at CanSec a couple of
years ago.  I'm not sure of the brand, but I seem to recall it was
bright yellow and had a couple of directional antennas for
triangulation.  I also think it was WinCE based.

It could track clients as well as APs.

Google's not turning up much after a quick search.  I'm sure
someone on the list can provide a pointer.
