To get back to the original thrust of this thread (and resurrect it), wasn't Sauron still disembodied at the time of the War of the Ring? I always thought that without the Ring, he didn't have enough power to remake a physical body.

Apparently, while the Ring itself was still intact, Sauron was capable of being rebodied.

However, it took him a pretty long time to get his strength back, so that delay was probably due to his lacking physical possession of the One.
