I just finished reading the book last night and the same thought 
crossed my mind but there was no  hinting or foreshadowing of any 
other way to preserve one's immortality except through a horcrux.  I 
don't think Dumbledore would have used this due to its association 
with dark magic.  I don't know I guess we'll have to wait another 2 
years to find out.  Sigh!!!
