But, as Gandalf states, he did not only want information. Regardless of the Hobbit's information value, he
wanted the Hobbit. He was
obsessed with the Hobbit. Why?

I don't doubt that he does. But he was particularly excited about the prospect of entertaining

Well, it's not going to take him long to clear up that particular misunderstanding. A Nazgul was en route to Isengard even as Gandalf was speaking. Yet Gandalf says that it may be some time before Sauron learns of his error. What error could that be?
