package to query Google for latitude and longitude for a given ZIP code

Hi, I was wondering if someone could direct me to a package that would 
allow you to query Google (or any other resource) for the latitude and 
longitude of a ZIP code. 

You can try the 'geocode' function in the dismo package.

geocode('03861')

ID      lon      lat   lonmin    lonmax   latmin   latmax
[1,]  1 -71.0169 43.11589 -71.0731 -70.96072 43.08175 43.17245
