  It seems some of the wand shadows could communicate with 
each other while they were still in the wand, because Lily knew 
that James was coming (in the corrected version) and they were 
able to coordinate the defense of Harry with the other shades. It 
is an interesting question how they learned about the portkey. 
The wand evidently is able to read the intentions of an 
experienced wizard, so that when Molly says "accio!" to summon 
the toffees from the twins' possession, it doesn't send everything 
in the room flying toward her.  So there's some silent  
communication between the wizard and the wand.
  Frank Bryce doesn't seem to know about anything, unlike 
Bertha and the rest.  It may be that the shades of magical people 
were able to eavesdrop on Voldemort's planning stage 
conversations with Crouch and Wormtail, and that's how James 
and Lily know about the cup.
