scrub/whir/squeek noise on front driver side...

posted a message about this some 6 weeks ago, but lemme update. no noise when just starting the car and driving, after about 5 minutes i start to hear a scubbing/whirring/squeeking noise from the driver side wheel. i do not hear the sound when accelerating but as soon as you hit the point where you take enough gas back for the car to slow down ( even a fraction ) the sound starts. also hear it with gear in neutral coasting along. steering direction has no effect on sound. its dependant on speed, the faster the faster the noise etc. further more car pulls slightly to passenger side when not holding steering wheel.
now it would be nice to always accelerate but this sadly is not a possibility. went to local tire center dude and had him check it out when mounting new tires and he said the brake disc/rotor is warped. but if that was it i should pretty much always hear it, not? i checked for play in the wheel when jacked up; none, so bearing seems out of question too. whats left? oh saab gurus shine light on this dark matter, thanks in advance!
