Didn't Harry smash it into a million pieces when it didn't work?  I 
think what is shows is that Harry is still young.  He was hotheaded 
and didn't think of all ways of communication. (Sirius had clearly 
told Harry to use it is he needed to get intouch with him.)  It's a 
really harsh lesson to learn, but I'm sure he won't forget it. (Just 
like you said Tim)
