Well, McGonagall too thought Trelawney was a few fruit loops
short of a bowl, and even Dumbledore commented in PoA that her
prophecy regarding LV's rise brought her total of /real/
prophecies up to two. I don't think that Hermione's doubtfulness
of Trelawney is going to change any time soon.... it's pretty
firmly founded :o)
