From the developer:
Prey lets you keep track of your phone or laptop at all times, and will help you find it if it ever gets lost or stolen. It's lightweight, open source software, and free for anyone to use. And it just works.
Basically you install a tiny agent in your PC or phone, which silently waits for a remote signal to wake up and work its magic.
