The guys in the tech forum might have some additional tools. I loaded the "find my iphone app" on my phone. Now I can see where my phone or my wife's is. Obviously it only works if it is turned on though.

Check with your carrier, when my daughter's Sprint phone was stolen, I was able to turn on their family locator service on a trial basis and find where it had been taken (only works if they leave the phone on, of course).

For your next phone, I strongly recommend something like https://www.mylookout.com/.  I've never had a phone lost or stolen, but it allows you to locate a phone, lock it and even delete data.

I downloaded over the air Plan B for android, auto sends over email a map of my phones location, turns out my phone was one of the few things that were not stolen... but yea

for the droids if you lose your phone download that app off the android market with your computer, and the phone sends you its location
