RE: Distances and bearings between points
I have uploaded two routines for LatLong to Distance to my Geodesy program in the software library.
One, the Haversine method.
Two, a simplification of the ellipsoidal Vincenty formula for a spherical Earth.

My implementation of the ellipsoidal Vincenty formula needs more work - results are currently less accurate than using the spherical calculations.
Update: V0 .3 now includes Vincenty.
