I have my own ideas about Neville's future.  His confidence has 
increased massively in the last book and consequently his magical 
abilities have come on in leaps and bounds and I can only see that 
continuing.  I strongly suspect that he is the one who will end up a 
teacher as per JKR's quote.  She said, if I remember correctly 
something along the lines that one of them would be a teacher and 
not the obvious one (which to me implies not Hermione).  

I give you <trumpet fanfare> Neville Longbottom:  Future permanent 
DADA teacher!
