Re: Front Brake Rattle - ARGGGGHHHH!!!
uneven brake pad wear... the first thing that jumps to mind is a frozen caliper pin. check that your caliper pins are both well lubed (copper or silver anti-seeze)

Re: Front Brake Rattle - ARGGGGHHHH!!!
This can happen too but don't use anti-seeze as I have seen it cause a reaction with the rubber o-ring and cause them to swell. They make disc brake pin lube specifically for this use. It doesn't have the possible reaction with the o-rings.

Re: Front Brake Rattle - ARGGGGHHHH!!!
If by caliper "pins" you are referring to the 2 long allen-head bolts that hold the callpers in place, yes I lubed these up. I used the purpose made brake lube that comes in a tube. I don't think these are binding.
