Last year all the hype was about the iPad 4 / Mini. People started to guess about the Mac Mini and 13in retina. But like no one saw the iMac redesign.
Just because the "focus" will be iPad that don't mean there wont be a lot more.
Yes, but while it is only a spec boost like the imac (likely) it will add to the feature list quite extensively with a much better battery life so more akin to the MacBook Air than the iMac.
Someone said it went down a couple of minutes. Don't know why they would need 5 hours for a update.
Guys the apple store is down (directly from apple.com support page) "for updating" so it's very likely that something new is coming.
HOWEVER this something new will not probably be rMBP but, instead, Mac Mini.
Of course I HOPE to be wrong, but I do not expect it.
Strange because the apple store went down in wednesday, not in tuesday.

My hopes are up. The one thing that makes me skeptical is if it was released it would have mountain lion on it, right? I would think maybe apple would want to hold off until it ships with mavericks for some reason.
I'm going to put my money on a Mac mini or some new ads.
Are you sure? It says for me:
The Apple Store is being updated and will be back soon.
Apple store is down for an extra hour longer than the system status section first mentioned.. Please Apple, new rMBP!
I've heard they are stopping sale of all MBPs so it's taking some time to update the site.
Sorry
Sorry
They probably updated the iPhone case collection
IMO only two more weeks until we know something. Hopefully there will be a few leaks in the next couple of weeks - like some nice juicy part numbers 
I really dont think we should take what AllThingsD said as a sertain.
Cos what they are saying is:
"The focal point of the gathering will be the latest updates to the companys iPad line, but the new Mac Pro and OS X Mavericks will likely get some stage time as well, "
So in other words they dont know at all.
They know that it will be a iPad focused event, but they also know that wont be all they talk about. So they say the 2 most likely candidates for mentioning on the event, which is the Mac Pro and Mavericks.
And the reason for that is cos they are the only 2 confirmed releases for this fall.
Do you get my logic here?
I really feel this is how it is, and im really not saying that just because im waiting for the rMBP. It just makes the most sense if you read between the lines and dont take every word as the law.

So can we expect a new rMBP on the 22nd or not?
For me the 22nd October event looks quite stuffed already. It's also strange that the source didn't even mention the rMBP. Also my 3 years "experience" on macrumors indicate me that there won't be a release in October.
Is there any source for "probably no release" in October? This threat is quite biased, we always try to find the positive signs neglecting the obvious.
Nevertheless it's quite frustrating that there is now updated rMBP yet, especially if you see what the competitors are doing over the last weeks.
