There was a problem hiding this comment.
The value is expressed in Km, so the final computation do not need to convert from meters.
The correct "meters" values is 63781370.0
Added getDistance() given two GeoPoints

Added distance and elevation (in/max) display.
Unfortunately the GeoPoint distance computation is not correct: after double checking the computed distance with Pedometer hand-drawn path.
The included DistanceUtil class implements the standard Spherical Law of Cosines as in http://movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html
