Hickengruendler:

When Cho entered Hogwarts, she at once turned to Michael Corner, her 
boyfriend, and said, that she got the message. So I assume, it was 
Michael, who stayed in contact with her. Given, that at the time 
Michael went to Hogwarts for his last year, both of them knew, who 
the new Headmaster was and that he was supposedly in league with 
Voldemort, I can see Cho trying to use her coin again, to hear, what 
is going to happen with Michael.

Hickengruendler:

I think the text encourages a comparison between Harry and Neville, 
with both being a part of the prophecy and having a somewhat similar 
yet also very different past. I see Neville, symbolically speaking, 
as Harry's little brother, who just like Harry tries to find his 
place within Hogwarts (standing for the Wizarding society), just on a 
much smaller level in the beginning. One of the reasons, why I liked 
the killing of Nagini so much, is because it simply fits, IMO. Just 
like Harry killed the Basilisk, his "little brother", killed the 
Basiliks "little sister", even using the same weapon drawn from the 
same artifact. Which in both cases put their doubts to rest, if they 
really belong into Gryffindor.

Luna can easily be compared with Hermione, as she is her opposite, 
but in her own way just as clever as Hermione. Which leaves Ron and 
Ginny, but I find it hard to find any parallels between them, except 
the shallow ones like both being Weasleys.   
 
Potioncat:
Actually, there are 3 trios. The Marauders...

Hickengruendler:

It are moment like these, where I'd almost pity Peter, if he were 
real.

Hickengruendler, liking Potioncat's last post very much and 
apoligizing for the somewhat snarky answer, but I couldn't resist ;-)
