 Someone else on this board made a good point,
 though, about the faithful servant also was the one
to set up the portkey.
 
 Anyway, it is stated that not all the death-eaters
 know who eachother are.  Only Voldemort knows
 that.
 Since we do not know where Snape is going, we do
 not
 know if he is in direct contact with Voldemort or
 not.
  He could just be spying on some of the free
 death-eaters like Malfoy.  Malfoy still thinks
 Snape is on his side.  
 
  We also do not know if Voldemort is using Snape
 (full knowledge that Snape turned to the good side)
in an attempt to spy on the OotP without Snape
knowing....
 Sort of biding his time and not killing Snape
 right away so he can make use of him before killing
him.

 I still think Snape is a good guy.  We see one
 hint of understanding (if you could call it that)
when Snape taps into HP's mind during an occulmency
lesson. He stops after seeing HP being chased by a dog
and a boy laughing at him, and he asked him about it.

 Was Snape possibly, ever so slightly empathetic for a
 fraction of a second because of the way he was
 mistreated as a boy?
 

Also, Snape tries to save HP more than once. SS/PS he
chants to keep him on his broomstick.  He DOES agree
 to give him occulmency lessons.  He also thinks he is
 doing a good deed in PoA when he goes into the
 shrieking sack (even though I do believe he DID
 realize Sirius was innocent after a point)
 
 We DON'T know why (YET) Snape left Voldemort. 
 But, I think there is a very big story behind it,
which I would love to find out in the next books. 
 My theory is that Snape will be one of the characters
 to die at the very end.  Possibly to save Harry???
  I think this would be very poetic.  But, I have no
 hard core evidence to back up my theory, except that
it would be very emotional and JKR seems to like
plugging that in every once in a while.
