Also, my thought on this was that at the beginning of SS/PoA/OoP, 
Harry does some sort of magic in front of the Dursley's.  For 
example, the vanishing glass scene and discussions of Harry's 
other "odd happenings."  There really isn't anywhere Harry does magic 
in the beginning of CoS. (Dobby does some at Privet Dr. but not 
Harry.)  In PoA, there is the blowing up of Aunt Marge. GoF - no 
magic from Harry.  Then, in OoP, he's caught with this wand by Uncle 
Vernon and is forced to do magic to save himself and Dudley from the 
Dementors.  Could this be another possibility?
