Harry Potter Spoilers
I've just finished and quite enjoyed Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and have some spoiling thoughts...
1) Dumbledore is not dead. He and Snape are masters of mind magic and could very well have communicated a plan prior to cursing him. Also his body is blasted out of sight so we don't actually see him die. Perhaps Snape mentally cast another spell while speaking the death curse incantation. Finally, Dumbledore's familiar is a Phoenix, so it would make good story sense for him to return from 'the dead.' It dose make good story sense for Harry to think him dead since Harry has been losing father figures left and right throughout the series and needs to come into his own as a hero.
2) If this is so, then Snape is still acting on Dumbledore's orders. He is now in the perfect position to be a deep cover double agent. Also, why didn't he take away his old potions book once he knew Harry had it (he must have known from either Harry's success in Potions or from his attack on Draco). Also, he kept stopping Harry from using Unforgivable Curses on him. I think he was in love with Harry's mother, which is why Dumbledore trusts him.
3) I think RAB is Regulus Black, Sirius' apparently deceased brother. Also, didn't they find a special locket in the Black family house last book? Maybe that was the missing Horcrux. Hmmm, that scene with Mundungus stealing things from the Black family house may be there to foreshadow a revelation that he had stolen that locket, too...
4) I think that Harry is the last Horcrux. We know that they can be living thinks like the Snake, and Voldemort was prepared to make one when he killed the Potters. Dumbledore also states that Harry's blood is more valuable than his own and Harry is curiously bonded to Voldemort...
