I have always had this to some degree. It seems less noticable ever since I put 
on new Mintex Red Box pads over my old worn down UFO rotors.
The Mintex pads do squeak quite a bit though.
I always thought the pad/rotor combo somehow had a "sticky spot" because there 
is no pedal pulsation - just slightly un-even braking at very slow speeds.
