I have the same noise. It doesn't fluctuate with RPM, but with speed. It sounds like a squeak in one of my brakes or wheel bearings, but when I jack up the car and spin the tires by hand, it sounds perfect. I don't hear it on the highway, unless I'm in a tunnel or next to a wall.
If I slow down to a creep, it sounds like squeak... squeak... squeak..., but once I speed up, it's almost constant (but it doesn't happen all the time).
