And I don't remember reading anywhere in GoF that Harry brought Cedric's wand 
back when he brought Cedric's body back.  So perhaps now Cedric's wand is in 
the possession of LV or a DE, and it will have the same connection to Ron's 
wand as Harry's and LV's wands have with their shared phoenix feather cores.

Oh, I like that. Particularly given that we know that Pettigrew is the DE who 
is the most likely candidate to be short of a wand. (And I suspect he may 
have been good at Charms in his Hogwarts days, and therefore a very likely 
former owner of a unicorn hair wand.) A Ron-Pettigrew axis seems singularly 
fitting in that the Weasleys are second only to the Potters in a list of 
people whose trust Pettigrew has abused. Could be very promising, if Rowling 
chooses to make use of it.

(And, no, there is no suggestion that Harry recovered Cedric's wand, unless 
Cedric was holding it in a "death grip".)
