Just a thought: Keep in mind that there are actually published machine-readable versions of this data. If your application is going to be making heavy use of this, it might be beneficial to download this type of thing and store it in a local database (or DB file). I found a nice CSV file with every zip code, locality name and latitude/longitude after a few minutes of Google surfing, though I don't know how recent it is.
