Not sure when this code revision will be adopted in my jurisdiction, but it's nice to have it in our hands top see what's coming down the pike. I prefer the handbook version of the code as it goes into more depth citing examples and providing many pictures and illustrations. The pictures really help explain the code and I've used previous versions on many occasions to settle disputes with sibs as well as inspectors. I feel the handbook version is well worth the additional cost.

If you want to actually understand the NEC, you can either take a bunch of classes or read the handbook. Classes, when taught by professional electricians are probably the best choice, but this handbook is a good alternative.
