it after I started wondering if the prophecy was about Neville 
instead of (or along with) Harry after all, because I (along with 
Amy Z and Lizvega) find it quite odd that JKR would raise the 
tantalizing suggestion that the prophecy might not have been about 
Harry after all (as Dumbledore tells us) and then allow Dumbledore's 
conclusion that there's no doubt that it was Harry to stand 
unchallenged.  One of the possibilities, which is not precluded by 
canon to date, is that the prophecy is about Neville and that in the 
final battle, Harry will be unable to defeat Voldemort and Neville 
will do it for him.

 Just to stir the pot a little, what if Harry is "the one" but how 
he defeats LV is by helping Neville gain confidence in himself both 
as a wizard and a person and Neville is actually the one who defeats 
LV.  Using this scenerio both boys of who the prohecy spoke fulfill 
it.
