yeah but why is the wheel spinning at all? never did it before.
I don't know why it is, it could be iTunes Home sharing part of 4.3, but nonetheless it does not use any data.
nope, i have it completely turned off.
There is no on/off switch for home sharing.

Just because it's off on your computer does not Change the fact that it is always enabled on your device. It's looking to see if there are any devices around that have it enabled. Your phone will still look. There is no on/off for the phone itself.
Same thing as this: If your bluetooth is on on your phone, but the headset is off, it will search for the device, but it will not connect. Your phone is searching for home sharing, but it just wont connect.

do you think this might cause my battery to drain more rapidly?
i'm sure.
could it possibly be using data when you're not using it in the multitasking bar?
I'm loving my iPhone 4 on 4.3, it's a vast inprovement performance wise over 4.2.1 from my personal experience.
I'm seeing far less jumps or animation skips in 4.3 while navigating my device for a start. Add the faster Safari performance (very noticeable on my O2 3G connection), as well as Home Sharing and I couldn't be happier.
I've also not come across the dreaded double-tap-thinks-it's-a-single-tap issue yet on 4.3 either.
Sure, it's not 4.0, but then 4.0 may be nostalgia to me after upgrading from an iPhone 3G. Who knows, but my iPhone 4 is a better user experience on 4.3 for me.
I have my Home Sharing connected whenever I'm at home (iTunes is on my file server) and I don't see any battery drain from it. Maybe it drains the battery constantly looking for it instead? Although, that doesn't make sense because I don't notice any battery drain when at work.does it do that on yours?
