>> I think that at some point we will see Neville use Harry's 
wand and find out it is just as suited for him if not moreso 
than it is for Harry. If you remember he had a used wand the 
first several years and so did not get a shot at trying the 
Fawke's wand like Harry did. What might have happened if he 
had tried it first? Would the wand have chosen Neville had it 
been given the chance? <<

Well in the series Voldemort has made many arrogant mistakes.  
Do you think that maybe he chose the wrong child?  Should it have 
been  Neville?  After all both sets of parents thrice defied him.  
Neville was given his father's wand if I remember correctly.  
Maybe if he had got to Ollivanders first Harry's wand would have 
chosen him.  I can't remember the core of Neville's wand and I 
do not have HBP with me at the moment.   Also I would suspect that 
Alice would have died protecting her child also as most mothers 
would, if so would the love protection have been on Neville and 
then vanquished Voldemort.  Is Neville the chosen one?  Even though  
Dumbledore thinks it's Harry.
