Oh, yes. I didn't mind Ron at first, but now... come *on.* I think Harry is the only one who has escaped massive silly characterization-- I don't much like him in Book 5, but I understand why he got that way, whereas Hermione's character just gets jerked around and Ron's character is apparently still stuck at age 11, like you said.
Reading through the books (almsot through GoF now) this information-witholding problem seems to be gettin worse as the books go on. In the first 3 or so books, you can kind of see why things happen the way they do, or at least some shoddy reason is given... Book 4 the most random illogical things take place without any explanation. (Perhaps a rant!post about that later... :) )
