Well... I really like the Wallace tome. (In fact, I like the entire Zondervan Greek series.) It is huge, but it is organized so that one can focus on basic material only; and, as the student becomes more proficient, and his need for more complex and obscure information increases, it becomes increasingly useful. If longterm use is a consideration, I think Wallace is a good choice.
