Serendipitor looks good! (Shame it's only for iPhone — I have an Android phone.)
I like this passage in the proposal for a psychogeographical iPhone app that you link to: If wandering by chance, the GPS can record one's route without the walker needing to do so. Removing oneself from this process in the present creates a self more reactive to the environment than reflective on the passage.
I find that trying to remember where I'm walking, in order to report on or map it later, does make a difference to how I experience the wander. Though I'm not sure if GPS in a city is going to work well enough to be accurate, especially when you're going down little alleys and such.
