I don't have unlimited, but I have 4GB/mo +rollover, which I couldn't make a dent in unless I was tethering. Using navigation, streaming music, downloading audiobooks, and on rare occasions watching a video without having to worry about it is outstanding.
On topic, my re-listen of the entire Foreigner series should wrap up right on time for the finale of the current trilogy coming out next month. I started the re-listen months ago with no idea when the next book was coming, so it's just serendipity.
The second pass has been rewarding: I'm rediscovering whole characters I glossed over the first time, getting a much fuller picture of others, and following all the factions of the aishidi'tat in much more detail. On the one hand, the series is very much comfort food, but the level of consistent detail and texture to the world is impressive. There's a real sense of historicity around the events and the people involved, and Cherryh definitely has me hooked with the cliffhanger from the last book.
I'm pretty sure it was CRussel who turned me on to this series, in this thread, so thanks for that
