Did anyone notice how Dudley had beaten up someone named Mark Evans in the beginning? Lily's (Harry's mother) maiden name was Evans. Perhaps that's a sign that Harry has more family hiding around somewhere...I don't think that JKR would throw that in without meaning something by it (I know Evans is a pretty popular name, but still).
I think that Dumbledore may be related to Harry in some way; maybe he is Lily's uncle or something. If Lily came from a wizarding family, even if it skipped a couple of generations, that may explain why Aunt Petunia was acting so strangely and knows more than she lets on. It could also explain the "ancient magic" and how she understood why she needed to take Harry in as a baby and keep him there no matter what.
Someone said they were glad that Lupin didn't die, and I have to agree with that. I liked Sirius and the idea that Harry had someone who cared about him like family, but he was kind of a bad influence on Harry. I think that Lupin could easily fill in the spot that Sirius left, since he was also very close with Harry's parents.
