My fearless predictions for the book.
Harry and Ron get OWLs in all but two subjects, Devination and History of Magic. Hermy naturally aces them all.
Ron becomes Quidditch captain. Harry returns as seeker and Ginny becomes a chaser and a prefect.
Ron finally comes to his pubescent senses. Harry starts dating Ginny.
Dumbledore dies rather than give up the myriad secrets he possesses.
The half blood prince turns out to be Dean or Hagrid.
The new minister for magic is a death eater.
I'm sure some of these are wrong but, but I suspect many of these guesses are fairly widespread.

I'm guessing Snape for the half-blood prince, mostly because no one has talked about him at all.
I figure Ron and Hermione have a thing and that it's one of the Wesley's who die.
The book is sitting at work right now, it's been hard to stay away.
