I like that comment about Ron sacrificing himself, such as in the 
Chess scene.  When this is put with the centaur's remarks on always 
the innocent are the first to suffer etc. (obvious paraphrase), and 
the fact that Cedric's wand core is unicorn, as is Ron's this seems 
possible.  Are there any other hints out there that Ron may be the 
one to die?  

That is a very interesting observation about Cedric's and Ron's wand.  If Ron does die I highly doubt it will be until the end of the book.  JKR is very attached to his character that is why I say this.  Ron seems a lot more susceptible to things for one thing he's not as observant as Hermione and Harry.  He also has a much larger family...why is this a reason?  Well, look at all the people he might have to sacrifice himself for, I believe he would for any of his family or Hermione and Harry.  However, I still think that Ron will live.  However he is the hero's best friend, and the hero's best friend well often times is always very susceptible.  However, not everyone is going to die...this isn't a tragedy I'm sure.  I believe it will have a happy ending, leaving many of the characters..including some that we still love and care about.  But the chessboard thing has made me really think about the possibility of him dying much more...I hope not though, cuz Ron is one of my favorite characters.
