Gabor,

package rgdal provides an interface to the PROJ.4 library for projection 
of geographical data. Look for the function (or rather method) 
spTransform. It takes any of the spatial classes provided by package sp, 
and afaik any of the known projection systems, including UTM and 
ellipsoids (LL reference "model").
