During my most recent read through, I noticed some striking similarities between Gollum and Wormtongue. They both start out as cunning and clever, but they wind up broken and enslaved to the power that controls them. Some of Tolkien's descriptions of their motions (e.g. Wormtongue's motion along the road toward the Shire) are even fairly similar. Given that Saruman is known to have made a ring for himself, this might be interesting.
Obviously we're really far from looking at this, but maybe it's something to keep in mind.
