I don't think that Petunia is a squib because JKR makes a big deal about mentioning Lily is a 'mudblood' when V refers to her, etc. I actually think that Lily and Petunia's parents are squibs which is why they would be VERY excited that at least one of their daughters got a letter from Hogwarts. It also explains how Petunia knows as much as she does about the Wizarding World. The definition of a muggle is a non-magic person - which would technically include squibs (though squib is used to distinguish the wizard parents. . . ).
Just another theory to throw out until we get books 6 and 7. . .
