In the book Frodo's fading isn't so fast - it's overdramatic in the movie. So maybe there wasn't such a hurry to take the Ring away from him.
Yes, this is true, but as they approached Rivendell, his condition got worse. So, there was still the threat. But you have a good point.

What would be the purpose of taking the Ring from Frodo? He was certainly too weak to walk over and give the Ring to the Nazgul, and if he had tried Strider certainly would have stopped him.
This was also a good point, but it got me thinking about something. If Frodo was to completely fall under the power of the ring as the Ringwraiths did, would its power give him strength?
