  I don't recall anything in book 6 regarding the mirrors or 
their importance. Do you think they will make an appearance in book 7?
   
  Cassy:
  Considering how many things that "have great importance" never appeared or were barely mentioned (such as Harry's eyes, Lily's wand, etc.), the 7th book is bound to look like really large FAQ listling, should JKR attempt to explain everything she promised to. Though in case of the mirrors, their NOT appearing again would not make any sense, since they never played any part at all and it is unclear why to introduce them in the first place if not to use later. As for emotional impact, Harry could just as well brood over any other memorabilia given to him by Sirius instead.
