Actually, he didn't want the Ring so much as the finger that was in the Ring. He really missed that finger, you know. It was just long enough to reach that "itchy spot" between his shoulder blades. Not to mention that people had a tendency to stare when they noticed he only had nine digits.

So he kept searching, searching, searching for the One Finger that Isildur had removed, never realizing that he had disgarded the appendage long ago and kept the Ring! Foolish mortal.

For a brief moment Sauron had hoped that he could take Frodo's finger, it being better than nothing, but it was much too small, and burnt to a crisp, to boot.
