It will not trak the movement of the iPhone / iPod touch all of the
time, this goes against Apple's policy that no application can run in
the background. It only invokes itself when Safari is used to access
a page - the most common page to use is Google. It then sends a
location and time stamp to the gadgettrak web site for monitoring. If
the GPS is not enabled at the time it will only give approximate
location using phone towers.

Looks impressive and it's free as well. Would it still work if
the iphone was stolen and wiped - either by theif or owner (I saw
them talk about that in the keynote ages ago - was a feature that
appealed to the corporate/army users who were testing it)?
