Some other thoughts about wands:

1) Are there other "brother" (or "sister", for that matter!) 
wand pairs out there? Maybe Neville's new wand can counter that 
of one of the DE's? 

2) What happens to a wizard's wand when he/she dies? Will someone inherit DD's wand?

3) As I mentioned in an earlier post re: corresponding the Houses 
to the Tarot deck Minor Arcana, Ravenclaw would be the suit of 
Wands. Maybe Ollivander has (or knows something about) Rowena's 
wand, and Voldy wants it?
