If you haven't yet, do yourself a favor and listen to any of the recordings that Wallace has of him reading his own work. My favorite is "Consider the Lobster," available on amazon, which has him reading four of his essays.
In addition to his prose already being just incredibly awesome, something about his voice reading his own words is almost transcendental. Hearing his personal inflections and intonations on his writing adds a whole new level to the experience.
I often listen to this collection while on long journeys, either on airplanes or even just hiking through the woods. His stories told in his own voice are hypnotizing on just so many levels.
