Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows discussion thread (SPOILERS)
Eh..I think the locket also was there to show the difference between Harry and Voldemort.
Think about it...as he held the locket he became closer and closer to Voldemort in that he drove all his freinds away and was becoming more alone. It was his friends that eventually saved him from death (Ron pulls him out of the water) and his remembering this (letting Ron break the locket) that lead to the eventual downfall of Vodlemort.
It just reinforces the point that Voldemort's downfall was that he trusted no one, and in the end he had no one to save him.
